Vanilla Spice Black Tea - Spruce & Spice
Spruce & Spice
A warming black tea inspired by Alaska’s forests, winter kitchens, and the comfort of coming in from the cold.
Spruce & Spice is a richly layered vanilla spice black tea that feels both familiar and unexpected. Bold Assam black tea forms the foundation, softened with real vanilla bean and bright citrus peel, then deepened with warming spices and subtle forest notes.
Hints of ginger, cinnamon, clove, and cardamom bring cozy warmth, while cedar tips and elder flowers add a quiet nod to Alaska’s wild landscapes - evergreen, grounding, and unmistakably northern.
This is a tea for slow mornings, dark afternoons, and moments when you want something that feels steady, warming, and full-bodied. Comforting without being sweet. Spiced without being sharp. Familiar, but never ordinary.
Small-batch blended and thoughtfully sourced, inspired by Alaska’s forests and seasons.
