Tea story
Kaizen is a blend rooted in the traditions of South America, where mate (Ilex paraguariensis) has been cultivated for centuries. Originating in the subtropical regions of Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil, mate is cherished for its stimulating properties, used by the indigenous Guarani people long before it became a popular beverage across the globe.
This particular blend incorporates the essence of bergamot, a citrus fruit native to Italy, adding a modern twist to the classic earthy mate. Processed through drying and roasting methods, mate is combined with bergamot to create a blend that's ideal for energizing and refreshing the mind.
