A beautiful, loose leaf floral tea for when you need comfort
Up in the Clouds is one of the prettiest blends I make—it kind of resembles potpourri and has a real pretty fragrance. It’s designed for comfort and is an excellent tea to have on a rainy day. It is chamomile dominant with raspberry leaf and jasmine flowers benefiting the taste and aroma. Passionflower, rose hips, marshmallow, and damiana are there to help the body out. I consider it the softer sibling to Sore Before, since they both soothe the body, however this leans more on the floral side. It’s a good one to lift you up when you are feeling down!
Up in the Clouds has new artwork as of December 2020! I love this piece done by Bryttanye Czaikoski, an artist I found browsing the South Street Art Mart in Philly. She does great illustration work, and as a matter of coincidence, was told years ago by her art teacher, “I could see this on a tea label one day.” How cool is that?!
Vinyl Pairing: Dorothy Ashby - Afro-Harping (Cadet, 1968)
Talk about groovy! Released on the Cadet label in 1968, you can expect to hear sample-worthy tracks courtesy of jazz harpist, Dorothy Ashby, and her arranger-conductor, Richard Evans. Unique and stellar. Recommended for fans of David Axelrod, or cinematic jazz.
