More information about Greek organic mountain tea
Greek organic mountain tea of the SIDERITIS SCARDICA variety in hand-filled tea bags! And only with cones!
The 2 grams of tea are enough for a liter of tea or even a teapot, please do not confuse with a tea bag that is intended for a cup.
Refreshing as a cold drink in summer - extremely soothing as a hot tea in winter.
Our field is at an altitude of 700 meters, near Elatochori in the prefecture of Pieria, with a view of Mount Olympus. It rains relatively often up there and the conditions are ideal.

Drying is done - as in the past - without the use of technical equipment, using only the mountain air. This can take 6-7 days.

Greece is legendary for its fantastic olives and the amazing oils that are extracted from them. Thanks to my travels, I was able to get to know the best products made by farmers who have been growing these fruits for generations and extracting them into very special oils using traditional methods and a lot of love and care. These first-class products cannot be found in Greek supermarkets - and certainly not outside the country. From a fascination for the intense pleasure of the palate came the vision to share it. Therefore, after twenty years as a manager at various companies, I started my own business: DELINIO. With my training as an olive oil taster and the thorough study of the multifaceted olive oil topic, I...
