In Inuit history, Labrador tea was probably the most widely used of all the teas. Originally, it was used to treat respiratory problems, bleeding and aches and pains.
Ingredients: Bearberry leaves (uva-ursi), peppermint leaves, Labrador tea (Mamaittuqutik), eucalyptus leaves, fennel seeds, coltsfoot leaves, ginger.
Company description not available.
Whahahaha…That is so funny!
My friend gave me some teabags of “Fine Inuit Herbal Tea”, and it’s so great to comment those since I am partly “inuit”. People think’s that Inuit is people from Nunavut, but it’s actually a group of people spred across Russia, Canada and Greenland. We share the same genes, the same myths and partly the same language. People also call us Eskimos, but we resent that. Inuit means “humans”.
The reason to my outbust of laughter was not the that, but the name of the tea. Not only is it “Labrador” but over that “mamaittuqutik” is written. In my languages, roughly translated, this means: “with-good-tasting”. (This kan be translated to “Aromatiset with”)
So when I took this tea out I read:
Aromatised With Good Tasting Labrador
Whahaha
…This tea does not contain dog. Labrador is a ingredient (Tea or herb).
Anyways. The colors orange, there small amount of “dust” in the cup (like your typicall tisanes) It smells minty and taste minty. A little too sharp, so the steepingtime should be short.
Looks like we’ve got duplicate entries for most of the Delice Boreal blends. I just picked one arbitrarily.
Years ago, someone kindly shared DB’s number 2 blend with me. I liked it so much that I ended up hoarding the last two teabags. I’ve finally finished those off now that I’ve restocked, but that’s a separate tasting note.
Because I liked number 2 so much, I made a point of seeking out this brand’s teas while I was in Canada. I’ve never had half the ingredients in this blend so it’s hard to judge the flavor. Mostly I’m getting eucalyptus, licorice, and a touch of menthol at the end of the sip. The licorice has that humectant quality that really builds over the course of the cup, which makes it feel a bit imbalanced. Will try a shorter steep and see if it helps.
