Comments on Jenn's review of Organic Spearmint
Spearmint for your health...
This product is organic and delicious and good for you -- spearmint has many of the same qualities as peppermint: it's energizing, a digestive aid, helps you feel good. Yum.
One other benefit which I just turned up is that it may help women reduce hirsutism by lowering testosterone levels -- it was in the Washington Post: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/02/20/AR2007022001265_2.html
Traditional Medicinals does a great job of giving back -- they offset 100% of their electricity use with 100% wind power, are committed to organic and sustainable herb sources. They are a really good company.
Packaging -- all the boxes are 100% recycled paperboard, and the teabags are unbleached Manila hemp fibers. Each tea bag is packed into an envelope that preserves them from moisture and tampering. This is all great for tea that is sitting on a shelf in a communal space, I suppose, but at home, I prefer bulk teas. I am only rating it 4 stars because buying spearmint tea in bulk is a much better option.
