Simpson & Vail Rocky Mountains National Park Tea
This one feels a bit like taking your tea break on a mountain trail.
Rocky Mountains National Park Tea combines a sturdy black tea base with raspberry and sage for a warm, woodsy blend inspired by Colorado's pine-covered trails and snow-capped peaks.
The raspberry is light and slightly musky rather than candy-sweet, while sage contributes the distinctive herbal, almost pine-like aroma that gives this tea its outdoorsy character. Organic raspberry leaf and real raspberries reinforce the fruit notes without turning the blend into dessert tea.
It's an unusual pairing, and that's part of its charm: fruit first, forest just behind it.
Simpson & Vail donates 10% of Rocky Mountains tea sales to the Rocky Mountain Conservancy, which supports stewardship through education and philanthropy.
