About Oud & Mastic
The combination of natural oud, mastic, and smooth black tea creates an evocative blend to stir your senses. The aroma offers a floral fragrance akin to light incense with notes of rose and wood, while the taste is much the same with a vanilla-sweetness and lasting notes of mastic with a touch of malt and spice. You will notice in the loose leaf a light touch of pink rose petals, buds, and whole cloves to enhance and balance the blend. Enjoy in the late morning or afternoon when you’re taking a break to refresh and romance your senses. Pair with honey flapjacks, or with a square or two of milk chocolate.
About
Mastic – an evergreen shrub- and oud are commonly combined, particularly in incense blends for their healing and sensorial properties, often used in religious ceremonies. The earthy, pine-like taste of mastic balances beautifully with the floral qualities of oud, creating an unforgettable fragrance and taste.
Effects
Mastic is particularly renowned for its ability to support the gut, improving microbiome, reducing stomach acid, and protecting the stomach lining. Oud, on the other hand, promotes ‘Qi’ which is your natural energy. In combination, both mastic and oud create an overall sense of peace and wellbeing.
How to Enjoy
This is a particularly good tea for romancing the spirit and could be an excellent creative companion, or for an indulgent moment to really activate your sense of taste and smell. Black Oud Mastic could also be a lovely tea to share with a partner. Pair with honeyed desserts or a box of chocolates.
