What's Inside

Two Ingredients, Nothing Else

This one's different from the rest of our lineup — there's no tea leaf in it at all. It's a simple infusion built from just two whole ingredients, blended and packed by hand in Eagan, Minnesota.

No fillers, no artificial flavoring standing in for real ingredients — what you see in the tin is what's actually brewing in your cup.

CRAFT

Simple, on purpose

No oxidizing, no rolling, no grading tiers — just two ingredients, dried and blended with care.

01

Harvest

Chamomile blossoms and ginger root, harvested at their peak.

02

Dry

Each ingredient dried separately, gently, to preserve its own character.Dry

03

Inspect

Sorted by hand — whole flowers and clean root pieces only, no stems or dust.

04

Blend

Combined in small batches at a ratio built for balance, not just cost.

05

Pack

Packed by hand in Eagan, Minnesota, the same week it's blended.

TASTING NOTES

Soft. Warm. Soothing.

Straight from the product description, in plain terms.

AROMA

Soft and honeyed from the chamomile, with a warm edge of fresh ginger underneath.

PALATE

Gently sweet on its own — no added sugar needed — with a light peppery warmth from the ginger.

FINISH

Calm and lingering, the kind of cup that signals the day is winding down.

WHY THIS TEA

Why buy this over the grocery-store box?

1

Whole ingredients, not dust

Most mass-market herbal blends are built from leftover fannings — the parts too small or broken to sell on their own. This one isn't.

2

No artificial flavoring

The sweetness and warmth come entirely from real chamomile and real ginger — not a flavor designed to taste like them.

3

Just two ingredients

No filler herbs added to bulk out the blend — every batch is the same simple, balanced ratio.

4

Packed by hand, in small batches

Blended and packed by the Himalko family in Eagan, Minnesota — not a large contract facility running thousands of pounds at once.

How to brew it right

BLEND
1 tbsp
Per 8oz water
WATER

STEEP

Longer than true tea, no bitterness risk
One 2oz pouch brews up to 20 cups; the 4oz size stretches to 43 — plenty to figure out your ideal steep time.
Recyclable packaging. Every tin ships in a curbside-recyclable cardboard tube, not plastic — one more small way to keep this closer to the way tea used to come.
ECO-FRIENDLY
AIR-SEAL LID
KEEPS FRESHNESS
FOIL-LINED INTERIOR

What actually shows up at your door

This is the real tube — mountain-line logo, a hand-drawn tea shoot on the front, and the full brew guide (hot, iced, and cold-brew instructions) printed right on the back, so you're never digging through a drawer for a card you lost.

No shrink-wrap, no plastic tin, no printed inserts to throw away separately. Just one recyclable tube, front to back.

A thin foil liner sits inside the tube itself — isolating the blend from outside air and moisture — so the outer packaging can stay simple cardboard without the tea losing freshness.
