Baxter Blend - Black Tea & Cascara

Baxter Blend from Mainely Coffee pairs black tea with cascara, the dried fruit of the coffee cherry. After months of searching for a black tea that blended well with cascara, the result is a smooth, fruit-touched cup, and each order ships with a half dozen empty tea bags.
