Honey Ponderosa

$7.7 ~~$11.85~~ In stock

Honey Ponderosa is a hardy black tea blend. We distill that uncanny honey-vanilla-marshmallow aroma you smell in a Rocky Mountain pine forest into your tea cup. Bee pollen adds heft, while the honey aroma invites a slow-blooming sweetness. Delicious and smooth, maintaining that classic black tea kick. Try it chilled, and you might drink it all summer long: robust, but with an extra special something, always inviting another sip.

Ever sniffed a Ponderosa pine? Come in close: this is a hint of Montana wilderness. The Ponderosa Pine, while found all over the West, is the Montana State tree. When you walk through a Ponderosa forest on a hot day, you might smell a vanilla aroma. Scientists theorize that tree sap interacts with the heat, producing that honey, vanilla, and roasted marshmallow smell all rolled into one. We're proud to share one of our favorite flavors from the Big Sky State. Let us know if you think we nailed it.

A made in Montana tea.

The marshmallow-vanilla scent hits you the second you open the tin, and it actually carries through to the steeped cup instead of vanishing like most flavored blacks. I've been drinking it plain every morning this week, no milk or sugar needed.

The bee pollen really gives this tea a creamy mouthfeel that I didn't expect from a black tea, and that marshmallow note lingers nicely between sips. I've been brewing it every afternoon since the bag arrived, and it's become my little quiet-time ritual.

The pine-forest aroma is uncanny—it genuinely smells like a warm mountain breeze with that honey-vanilla marshmallow sweetness. The bee pollen gives it a real body that makes it feel more like a dessert than a standard black tea, and it holds up beautifully with a splash of milk.
