Organic Cascara Coffee Cherry Tea: Sustainable, 85+ Point Specialty Brew
Experience the hidden side of specialty coffee. Our Organic Cascara Tea isn't just a beverage; it’s a commitment to a zero-waste future. While most of the coffee industry discards the fruit (the cherry) to reach the bean, we saw an opportunity to honor the farmer’s hard work and create something extraordinary.
From Competition Grade to Your Cup
We believe that quality should never be compromised. That’s why our cascara is sourced from the exact same 85+ point competition-grade coffee used in our premium roasts.
By working directly with our farmers, we’ve developed a specialized process to harvest and dry these organic coffee cherries. Instead of being treated as a byproduct, they are transformed into a vibrant, antioxidant-rich tea. This partnership ensures that no part of the harvest goes to waste, providing extra income for the growers and a unique flavor profile for you.
Naturally Sweetened with "Sweet Grass" (Cỏ Ngọt)
To perfectly balance the natural tartness of the coffee cherry—which often carries notes of hibiscus, dried cranberry, and honey—we’ve added a touch of nature’s finest sweetener.
We use the Stevia flower, a delicate white bloom from the Stevia rebaudiana plant. In Vietnam, we affectionately call this "Sweet Grass" (Cỏ Ngọt). Unlike processed sugars or extracts, the whole flower provides a clean, gentle sweetness that lingers on the palate without any bitterness. It’s a traditional touch that honors our roots and keeps your tea 100% natural and calorie-friendly.

Brewing Instructions
To enjoy the full complexity of our Cascara and Sweet Grass blend:
-
Steep: Use 1 bag of tea per 12oz of hot water (approx. 200°F).
-
Wait: Let it brew for 3–3:30 minutes. The longer it steeps, the richer the "sweet grass" notes will become.
-
Enjoy: Drink it hot for a cozy afternoon or pour it over ice for a refreshing, floral summer treat.
