Roasted Dark Buckwheat Blend

This buckwheat is quite different from the standard buckwheat one would ordinarily find at most health food stores, which is usually cooked as a grain or made into soba noodles.

Black Bitter Buckwheat grows at an altitude of over 8000 ft., in mineral-rich soils and clean air, amidst a pure ecosystem removed from the onslaught of today's environmental toxins. The drastic temperature fluctuations of the days and nights allow the nutrients to concentrate at high levels within its seeds. The growing and harvesting of this buckwheat uses no toxic pesticides or herbicides, but maintains its integrity through the art of traditional farming methods, all in harmony with the land and the elements.

Buckwheat’s various vitamin and antioxidant properties have been shown to improve circulation, detoxify the body, and burn fat.* Read more about our buckwheat tea on our blog.

Naturally caffeine-free herbal tisane.

Taste: The bitter qualities of the plant are wonderfully balanced by a subtle sweetness and roasted aroma that combine to produce a buttered toast-like flavor.
