DESCRIPTION

Mountain tea, or tsai tou vounou, is the tea most Greek families keep in the cupboard. It's made from Sideritis raeseri, a hardy plant that grows wild on Greek mountainsides. Ours comes from the Parnonas mountains and is handpicked as whole stems, leaves and flowers. The Great Taste judges found it "slightly sweet with a long finish" and "pleasing floral, herbal notes". It's naturally caffeine-free, so it works any time of day.

How to use

Break a sprig (or use about one tablespoon) into a cup or small pot. Pour over just-boiled water and let it steep for 5 to 7 minutes. For a stronger brew, simmer it gently for a few minutes the way Greek grandmothers do. It's lovely as it is, or with a spoon of thyme honey and a slice of lemon. Chill leftovers for an iced tea in summer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Greek mountain tea?

Mountain tea, or tsai tou vounou, is the herbal tea most Greek families keep in the cupboard. It is made from Sideritis raeseri, a hardy plant that grows wild on Greek mountainsides. Ours is handpicked as whole stems, leaves and flowers.

What does Greek mountain tea taste like?

Gently sweet, floral and herbal, with a long finish. Great Taste judges described it as slightly sweet with pleasing floral, herbal notes. It is mild enough to drink without honey.

How do I brew Greek mountain tea?

Break a sprig, or use about one tablespoon, into a cup or small pot. Pour over just-boiled water and steep for 5 to 7 minutes. For a stronger brew, simmer it gently for a few minutes, the way many Greek families do.

Can I drink it iced or with honey?

Yes. It is lovely with a spoon of thyme honey and a slice of lemon. In summer, chill any leftover tea in the fridge and serve it over ice as an iced tea.

Where is it from and is it organic?

It comes from the Parnonas mountains of the Peloponnese, Greece, and is certified organic in the UK and the EU. The only ingredient is Sideritis raeseri: stems, leaves and flowers.

How many cups does a 100g pouch make?

It depends on how strong you like it. As an approximate guide, at about 2g per cup a 100g pouch makes around 50 cups.

How should I store it?

Keep the resealable pouch closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight so the tea keeps its aroma. The best before date is printed on the pack.

Does it contain caffeine, and can I drink it when pregnant?

Greek mountain tea is naturally caffeine-free, so you can enjoy it at any time of day. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication, please check with your doctor or pharmacist before drinking herbal teas.

Beautiful qualiTEA ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful qualiTEA Greek mountain tea. Fresh, aromatic leaves and a smooth, soothing brew with a lovely golden color. The quality is clearly excellent and very authentic. I enjoy it with lemon and it brews beautifully every time. I liked it so much that I already purchased my second bag.

Mountain tea

Old tea not fresh. Will be returning it. Showing two pictures. The loose one is the one not fresh. The second picture-with not loose tea is the fresh one. The difference is obvious Update Did give it a try and the tea is good. It does have the smell of good mountain tea. Will not return it. The co-owner/ founder of the company did reach out to me directly and offered a refund. Also an explanation of why the color is not as bright. Per him, it’s the type of tea. Since I’m using the tea and it’s a good one I’ll not return it or request a refund. However wouldn’t be ethical if I had not updated my review. A big plus I also wanted to mention is the fact that is loose. It’s convenient. I recommend it.

Bad quality product I have wasted money on it

The product pictured and what I have received totally different. I have picked up this product because of more of larger pieces shown. In addition there is a musty smell. If this was my first time, I would hate this product. I just know this is a low quality product I couldn’t drink drink a cup of it. I have wasted my money. Amazon, why do you let these low quality products sell on your platform? Long term it will the Amazon losing.

Aromatischer Wohlfühltee

Ein herrlich aromatischer Tee mit angenehm blumigen Duft. Diese weiche blumige Note streichelt die Seele. Der Tee ist grob,d.h. die einzelnen Blüten sind gut zu erkennen. Der Teeaufguss ist goldfarben. Geschmacklich hervorragend.

Very nice tea.

I didn’t expect to like this Greek Mountain tea when I saw that it was mostly flower buds but I am very surprised and pleased with the flavor and taste. I use a tea strainer that fits down inside my cup and simply steep the tea for a few minutes being careful not to boil the water and burn the tea leaves. I don’t use any sweetener which is unnecessary with this tea. I really enjoy this tea and highly recommend it.

Nice organic, light and earthy herbal loose leaf tea, with no caffeine

It's well sealed and tightly packed, and can be resealed. I drink lots of black, green, white, and herbal teas, and this has pretty good flavor. It's kind of lightly savory with an earthy and flowery flavor near the end, I'd say it has mostly a sage-like profile, but also has a hint of a sweet lemony flavor as well. It goes good with honey or sugar. If you want to tone down the earthy flavors, I'd combine it with rooibos for a sweeter tea.

Very mild tea

The tea is made of a plant with small, woolly, greenish-yellow flowers and leaves. The dried plant sold as Greek Mountain Tea includes the stems, flowers, and leaves. I brew the tea in my own tea bags for about 10 minutes. It produces producing a light, yellowish-green to golden-hued liquid. I would describe this tea as very mild, earthy, and slightly floral. Because the flavor is very mild, I like drinking it with honey and lemon; the combination tastes pleasant. It is caffeine-free tea. Ali Julia review Review of APSOGO Organic Greek Mountain Tea

Best tea

Love the flavour, very different to tea bags you normally find in supermarkets. It smells and taste like a summer day in nature, best I can describe the taste. It comes in a resealable paper bag, to keep the flavour, 100g plenty for many teas. This is my favourite tea as it takes me back to nature no matter where I am. Very pleased

Guter Tee guter Geschmack

Die Griechischer Bio Bergtee wird schnell und sicher in einem wiederverschließbaren Frischhaltetüte geliefert. Es Ist mild und schmeckt uns ganz hervorragend und sollte einen Versuch wert sein. 5 – 7 g (oder ganz einfach eine lockere Hand voll) mit einem Liter kochendem Wasser aufgießen und 10 Min. ziehen lassen. (ggf. leicht süßen.) Wir meinen, dass eine längere Ziehzeit (20-30 Min.) den Tee noch schmackhafter macht. Auch als Kaltgetränk ist der Tee spitze! Hierzu aufbrühen und mit den Blättern/Kraut erkalten lassen. Besonders einfach ist die Zubereitung mit einem „French Press“-Bereiter, da übliche Teesiebe und Kannen mit dem groben und großen Material oft überfordert sind. (Und ein enges Tee-Ei ist völlig ungeeignet.) Insgesamt Dieser Tee ist nicht nur lecker, sondern kann auch was. Klassische Anwendungsgebiete sind Erkältungskrankheiten, Verdauungsprobleme und er wirkt bei zentralnervösen Störungen (Unruhe). Klare Kaufempfehlung von mir..

Sehr aromatischer Tee, allerdings etwas große Stücke

Der Tee kommt in 100 g Pack, was eine Weile reichen wird. Bereits beim Öffnen des Beutels kommt einem der gute Geruch des griechischen Bergtees entgegen, den ich persönlich sehr liebe. Die Farbe des aufgebrühten Tees ist appetitlich, der Geruch ebenso. Der Tee schmeckt genau wie erwartet: Griechischer Bergtee wie ich ihn kenne und liebe. Der einzige Nachteil, den ich an diesem Tee erkennen konnte, ist, dass die Blüten und Stängel noch relativ groß sind und so in kleinere Teeeier nicht gut reinpassen. Mit größeren Filtern hat man aber kein Problem mehr. Ich würde diesen Tee empfehlen.

Lecker und gut bekömmlich

Der Tee wird in einer wiederverschließbaren Tüte geliefert. Man muss vorsichtig am oberen Rand die Tüte aufschneiden und dann den Klippverschluss öffnen. Man sieht bei diesem Tee schön die Blüten, Stängel und Blätter. Der Tee riecht angenehm und sieht qualitativ hochwertig aus. Mir fehlte die Dosierunganleitung auf der Verpackung. Im Netz kann man lesen, dass man 2-3 Teelöffel für eine große Tasse verwenden soll. Mit diesem Tee sind Teelöffelangaben schwierig, das die Blüten & Co. kaum auf den Löffel passen. Ich habe dann nach Augenmaß dosiert. Der Geschmack ist sehr gut und mild. Schön bekömmlich und leicht. Ich trinke den Tee sowohl heiß als auch kalt, beide Varianten schmecken gut. Auch brauche ich keinen zusätzlichen Zucker, da er schon von Natur aus süßlich schmeckt. Ein leckerer Tee, der dem Körper gut tut.

Sehr angenehmer Geschmack

Der BIO Bergtee aus Griechenland kommt in einem wiederverschließbaren Beutel mit 100gramm Inhalt daher. Der Tee ist sehr grob -er besteht überwiegend aus groben Blättern und Blüten. Man sieht Einfach was man bekommt und nicht so ein feingeraspeltes Zeug mit unbekanntem Inhalt wie es oft im Supermarkt angeboten wird. Leider gibt es keine Zubereitungs Empfehlung auf der Packung welche Menge mit welcher brühzeit optimal wäre. Ich habe mich für 5 Minuten Ziehzeit entschieden und findet das ok. Ein angenehmes Aroma- nicht bitter- lecker. Allerdings pepp ich ihn noch ein bissel mit Zimt Stange, Spritzer Zitrone und etwas Holunderblütenhonig auf-ein Träumchen!! Den Rest füll ich in eine Flasche ab und stell ihn in Kühlschrank-top Eistee ohne diese Zucker Bomben die sonst so als Eistee verkauft werden. Der Preis ist jetzt kein schnapper aber das ist top BIO Qualität und man sieht was man bekommt. Von mir gibt es volle ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ und eine Kaufempfehlung gibt es auch dazu. Diese Bewertung spiegelt meine persönliche Meinung und Empfindung wieder die ich mit dem Artikel während des testtens gemacht habe. Ich bedanke mich das Sie meine Bewertung bis zum Ende gelesen haben und hoffe das ich Ihnen bei ihrer Kaufentscheidung behilflich sein konnte. VIELEN DANK

Delicious

There is only one way to describe this "APSOGO Organic Greek Mountain Tea", it's simply delicious, and this really does stand out from the many varieties of organic tea available, with its smooth, yet totally unique flavour. The thing to be aware of with this type of tea, is the trial and error required to find the right amount to use, but nevertheless, it's an enjoyable experience throughout that process. Having said that, once you have found the correct amount to satisfy your taste buds, try experimenting for an even fuller flavour, we made use of a coarse cheese grater for one test, and the result was absolutely amazing.

Good for the digestion

This large pack of Greek Mountain Tea is produced in Greece and, as it claims, provides truly superior quality and flavour. The small-scale farm production does ensure a quality of flavour and smell not found in commercially produced alternatives which we have previously tried and found did not retain their flavour and aroma. This is also an Eco Friendly product since it is produced at a certified Organic farm and packaged in an eco-friendly pouch made from renewable resources. The large pouch provides a generous 100 grams which will provide many delicious pots of health enhancing tea. I brewed this is a glass teapot with freshly boiled water, but some may prefer a richer brew made by boiling the herb in a pan on the hob. Delightful aid to the digestion. Recommended
