50g Eco Classic Green Tea with Lemon and Ginger

A loose-leaf green tea blend from China with lemon peel and ginger root — 50g in a Mandala Leaves tin, clean and bright with a faint warmth at the end of each sip. What's in the Cup Sencha-style green tea from China at 78% gives the blend a clean, grassy base that's lighter on the palate than black tea and lower in caffeine. Ginger at 10% adds a gentle heat that sits at the back of the throat rather than the front — present but not sharp, warming without being spicy. Lemon peel at 5% brings a clean citrus lift that brightens the green tea without making it taste like lemonade — it reads as freshness more than flavour. Lemongrass rounds out the blend with a faintly herbal note, adding length to a cup that might otherwise feel thin. The blend is light enough to drink throughout the day without the weight of a heavy black tea, and complex enough to hold interest across multiple cups. Blend and Tin Chinese green tea (sencha, 78%), ginger root (10%), lemon peel (5%), lemongrass. No artificial flavourings. The white Mandala Leaves tin at 6.5 × 6.5 × 7 cm stores approximately 25 servings and suits a kitchen shelf or travel bag. Brewing Green tea is sensitive to temperature — brewing with fully boiling water (100°C) can make it bitter. Aim for water at around 75–80°C, or simply allow boiling water to cool for 2 minutes before pouring. Steep for 2–3 minutes. Longer infusions increase both bitterness and ginger warmth, so adjust to taste. Drink without milk — the citrus and ginger notes are designed for black tea. Green Tea as a Daily Habit Green tea is produced from the same plant as black tea but processed differently — the leaves are heated quickly after picking to prevent oxidation, which keeps the colour green and the flavour lighter. Chinese green teas generally have a softer, cleaner character than Japanese varieties, making them approachable for those new to green tea. The lemon-ginger addition here makes the blend familiar without obscuring the tea. Size and Details Tin: 6.5 × 6.5 × 7 cm. Contents: 50g. Store sealed, away from light and strong odours. Green tea is more delicate than black tea and benefits from being stored in a cool, dry spot. Best within 12 months of opening. Common Questions Why does green tea sometimes taste bitter?Bitterness in green tea usually comes from water that's too hot or steeping too long. Using water at 75–80°C and limiting steeping to 2–3 minutes gives a clean, pleasant result from this blend. Does this blend contain caffeine?Yes, though less than black tea. Green tea typically has moderate caffeine — enough to be alerting without the intensity of espresso or strong black tea. It suits afternoon drinking for most people. Is this blend suitable for people who don't usually like green tea?The lemon and ginger make the green tea base more accessible — they soften the grassiness that some people find challenging in plain green tea. It's a reasonable entry point for those exploring green teas.
