Ever wondered if your glass of wine could be behind those pesky headaches? 🤔 Discover the eye-opening truth about what's really in your wine and why making the switch to natural wines is a game-changer! In the U.S., there are 76 FDA-approved winemaking additives, and yet, wine companies aren't required to disclose them. Some additives are harmless, while others, like dimethyl dicarbonate (DMDC), can be strongly toxic in its raw form. This lack of transparency means you might be sipping on a mix of natural and potentially harmful substances without even knowing it. Before your next wine purchase, explore these general tips on what to look out for: 🍇 Organic Friendly: Opt for wines sourced from organically farmed vineyards, emphasizing a commitment to sustainability and the environment. 🍇 Sugar-Free: Say goodbye to added sugars commonly found in conventional wines. Steer clear of Mega Purple, which is an ingredient notorious for its 68% sugar by content. 🍇 Additive-Free: Enjoy wines without preservatives and defoaming agents, such as sulfur dioxide and potassium sorbate, allowing you to savor the true taste. One of our favorite natural wine brands, Dry Farm Wines, is committed to transparency. They proudly display detailed labels, so you can make informed choices about what you're consuming.

In a world where convenience often trumps quality, there’s something truly special about hand-blended tea. Blended teas can offer more consistency in flavour from batch to batch. Much like fine wines or single malt whiskies, single leaf teas can vary in flavour depending on factors like harvest time, processing methods, and growing conditions, whereas blends can be more stable in flavour profile. At Tea Mountain, we’re passionate about preserving the tradition and artistry of tea crafting, and here’s why hand-blending is a game-changer: - Unmatched flavour profiles: Hand-blending allows us to carefully select and combine premium ingredients, resulting in teas with complex, nuanced flavours that simply can’t be replicated by mass production methods. - Preservation of essential oils: Whole leaf teas retain more essential oils, flavour, and aroma compared to broken leaves or tea dust. By hand-blending our teas, we ensure that every cup is bursting with freshness and vitality. - Customisation and creativity: Hand-blending gives us the freedom to experiment with unique flavour combinations and tailor our teas to suit the preferences of our customers. Whether you crave a soothing blend or a bold, invigorating brew like Portsmouth Tea, we’ve got it covered. - Health benefits: Studies suggest that whole leaf teas, like those used in hand-blended varieties, contain higher levels of antioxidants and beneficial compounds. By choosing hand-blended teas, you’re not just indulging in a delicious beverage – you’re also nurturing your well-being. - Sustainable practices: Hand-blending often involves smaller batches and careful attention to detail, resulting in less waste and a more environmentally friendly production process. Discover the difference that passion, expertise, and craftsmanship can make and join us in celebrating the art of hand-blended tea and elevate your tea-drinking experience to new heights. #HandBlendedTea #TeaCraftsmanship #portsmouthtea Photo by Melchior Damu on Unsplash

What you see on the front of your tea packaging may not reveal the whole story, and it's not always in a positive light. Did you know that tea companies often emphasize minor ingredients on their packaging while major ones stay hidden in the shadows? This marketing strategy can sometimes lead consumers down a misleading path. Many organic teas hold a hidden secret – they reduce costs by incorporating cheaper substitutes and fillers. These cost-cutting measures can compromise the overall quality and authenticity of the tea. Tea dust, a true master of disguise, plays a significant role in this puzzle. It can effectively conceal lower quality tea leaves and even the presence of 'natural flavorings.' This misleading act can make it challenging to discern the true contents, as the packaging often fails to accurately represent what's inside. Regrettably, some teas conceal undesirable elements that you wouldn't want in your cup. From artificial flavors to unwanted chemicals, the truth isn't always on the front label. Some 'organic' teas take shortcuts with cheaper substitutes and fillers, compromising both quality and authenticity. 🚫 What to Be Cautious About: Artificial flavors and colors Food coloring Artificial and natural flavorings Microplastics Bleach & Epichlorohydrin Pesticides Food additives Modified corn starch Sweeteners Citric acid 👉The next time you reach for your favorite tea, take a moment to read the entire package – front, back, and sides. 🌿✨ MOJO & MElo Difference: When you inspect our packaging, you'll discover only premium, carefully selected ingredients. - Pure & Simple. Our organic tea blends are meticulously crafted with a select handful of high-quality ingredients, each chosen for its distinct flavor and benefits, ensuring that every sip is a genuine delight. - We meticulously select high-quality ingredients for their flavors and benefits, making each sip a pure pleasure. - No shortcuts, no fillers. We are dedicated to delivering an authentic tea experience, devoid of unnecessary additives or inferior components. 🚫 We firmly reject artificial additives, colorings, flavorings, and preservatives.

Post 1/5: Organic Flavor When Billy Goldsmith and I were formulating we tried all kinds of flavors from different flavor houses. We found that we did not like flavors that were distilled with ethanol. We found that steam distillation was the best method for extracting essential oils and aromatics from the organic fruit. So when you open a can of Rebel Rabbit the aroma is the first thing that hits you... It almost smells stronger than it tastes, but the taste is true to the fruit. Grapefruit smells like you just cut into a fresh one. Mandarin Orange reminds me of the little fruit cups I would get with school lunch when I was younger. And the Lemon Lime is what a Sprite is supposed to taste like. We are not a sugary soda. We are not a juice based "tonic" or a flavor forward "elixir". Just a natural, organic, simple, seltzer. If you have not tried Rebel Rabbit yet and want to, shoot me a DM and I will hook up a care package 🤝 #drinkcannabis #beverage #regulationoverprohibition #hemp #highseltzer
