The almond sugar scrub is absolutely amazing! I am hooked on these products after buying some teas for my daughter and she raved about them! One of her favorites is the carrot cake. I love their lip balms and soaps too. And as a pro-life Catholic homeschooling family ourselves, I am eager to support this family business. With all the companies out there that do not promote God and family values, I am so happy to support this one that does! I just gave a referral to a friend who loves tea also and I’m sure she will be hooked as well! And the personal touch of each beautifully packaged box with a sampler in each is the icing on the cake. My daughter owns a natural candle business (Rustic Squirrel Candle Co ;) and she does the same with her packaging. It makes a difference and means so much to customers! Thanks, Farmhouse Teas! Oh, and they are a great source for my dried elderberries for making homemade syrup to keep my family healthy during the winter months! I love this company and I’m glad I found them. I’m a customer for life.
I purchased these for my mother in law for Xmas & she loves them so very much & the pretty lil wrapped up box they came in, all made with love 💕
This is the easiest and one of the best gifts for my brother.
I never developed the taste to drink coffee, but was excited to get this guide, as I see things inside that I can use to help family and friends to develop a taste for tea and enjoy the benefits of nutritional value as well!
This coffee swap is amazing! It smells SO good and is the perfect cup of cozy. I drank mine "black", but I can tell it would take creamer well- it is very full bodied and rich, but with no caffeine. I can't drink caffeine anymore for health reasons and have missed my daily mug so badly. I've tried many coffee substitutes and they all just taste like dirty water- NOT this drink! They have done an incredible job emulating coffee, but dare I say it actually smells and tastes better than coffee! And is much better for you! They included a sample in a Christmas gift box I ordered for my husband, which was so nice. Absolutely LOVED their packaging and recipes they put in our Christmas box. Thank you Farmhouse Teas!
I’ve ordered this tea around Christmas time for a few years now. I love sipping on it during the month of December. The black tea isn’t overpowering. It’s light and fruity, while giving me a subtle caffeine boost (without getting the caffeine jitters like I do when I drink coffee). This is the perfect tea to get in the holiday spirit!
We paired this one with white fish and it complimented it nicely. Easy drinking! Don't over brew it! Tulsi gets bitter quickly. I
Sweet flavor, calming scents, not too floral. I really love the spearmint and lemon flavors in this tea. I'm not really a chamomile tea fan, except fresh from my garden, but the other ingredients in this tea compliment the chamomile in a way that I can actually enjoy it.
I opened the bag and it tickled my nose! The most refreshing pound bag of ginger root I've ever opened.
This is what my husband says. And we like a cup of coffee just days. We enjoy it with 2 tsp of tea per 8 ounces and a little cream. French pressing it for 15 minutes brings out complex flavors. I love the nutritious ingredients that Ceanne packed into this variety.
