      The Lemon Blend loose leaf tea by the Rare Tea Company blends vibrant lemongrass from Sri Lanka and Malawi with soft, smooth Malawian Lemon Verbena, creating a truly global blend. A full-bodied infusion with grassy notes of fresh hay and the sweetness of lemon drops. 

      Lemongrass:  The Lemongrass is from Sri Lanka as well as smallholder farmers in Malawi. These are year-round, sustainable crops that are grown mostly by women on small plots of less than a hectare, providing essential income for their families. 

      Lemon Verbena:  To complement the unique Lemongrass flavor, some soft, smooth Malawian Lemon Verbena from Satemwa has been blended in. This smooths the edges, softens the mouthfeel and has the wonderful effect of both enlivening and soothing in the same delicious sip.
