Rosy Reef

"Nauty Aussie" invites you to drop anchor and enjoy a slice of island life with Rosy Reef. This vibrant black tea blend is as stunning and spirited as a Red Merle Aussie, offering a "paradise in a cup" that navigates between sweet tropical fruits and elegant floral depths.

The Vibe: A Coastal Sanctuary

Inspired by the colorful life teeming just beneath the surface, "Rosy Reef" is designed for those who appreciate the alert and intelligent nature of the Australian Shepherd. The visual of red rose petals and blue cornflower petals scattered through dark leaves mimics the striking multi-colored coats and mesmerizing eyes of our favorite herding companions.

• The "Aussie" Spirit: High-energy and bold, the high astringency of this tea provides a crisp, refreshing snap—much like a well-timed "herd that" command.
• Nautical Charm: This aromatic blend is your "Asylum Harbor," providing a sweet and spicy escape after a long day of sailing through rough waters.

Flavor Profile & Scoring

Expert tea tasters note that the combination of peach and cranberry creates a "slightly tart, pleasantly sweet" balance that hits the palate right up front.

• Notes: Fruity (Peach), Sweet (Orange), and a touch of Spice.
• Body: Medium (provides a sturdy, reliable foundation).
• Sweetness: High (no sugar needed for this tropical escape).

Ship-Shape Steeping Instructions

To keep your brew in "ship-shape" and avoid hitting the "bitter end," follow these coordinates:

• Amount: Use 2.5g of loose leaf for every 12oz of water.
• Time: Steep for exactly 5 minutes to let the organic peach and cranberry flavors fully unfurl.
