Description
Botanical Name: Mentha spicata
Spearmint is a member of the mint family long enjoyed across Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Indian and Himalayan food cultures. In India and Nepal, spearmint tea is traditionally consumed in the morning as a calming yet lightly invigorating beverage, appreciated for its clean taste and gentle lift without stimulation.
Spice Zen’s Certified Organic Spearmint Leaf is carefully selected for aroma and leaf quality, then quality checked and hand-packed in our gluten-free Sydney facility. Naturally sweeter and rounder than peppermint, spearmint offers a softer mint character with subtle citrus-like notes. When brewed, it produces a light-bodied, bright infusion that feels refreshing and steady. Many people reach for spearmint when they want a clear, clean cup that helps the day feel more focused and settled, often as part of a simple morning ritual or an after-meal reset.
