Rose Inspiration

It is at the edge of the petal that love waits.

~~William Carlos Williams

 
 

Ring Around the Organic Roses

Numi's new Velvet Garden: White Rose tea contains whole organic rosebuds. The flowers are cut up and blended with white tea in a process that utilizes the entire blossom so that no waste is created. These pink petals give off a sweet aroma and delectable taste that is not overpowering and perfumey like the oils and flavorings commonly used in tea. Using real ingredients imparts the brew with an authentic aromatic flavor that is subtle and delicious. The Rose has been associated with love and the goddess Venus since Grecian times. It was valued for its fragrance and beauty, and used in Medieval herb preparations. As an aromatheraputic agent, the scent can have a mild sedative affect and is used to treat anxiety and depression.

 
 

Meet Flower Child – Our New Mar-TEA-ni

What do you get when you mix the finest organic tea with the first ever organic vodka? A refreshingly organic elixir that is serendipitously delicious: Flower Child. The brain child of Square One Organic Vodka's Mixologists, Flower Child was the hot new summer drink at Numi's Art of Tea Soirée held at Sortie in New York. Exuberantly floral, Numi Organic Velvet Garden: White Rose Tea and ruby red hibiscus flower arrest the palate with an intriguing blend of berry-like flavors. Free-spirited, this elixir is decidedly not a wallflower. Share it out at your next summer bar-b-que. Click here for the full recipe for Flower Child and several other Mar-TEA-nis.

 

Romancing with Roses

Roses have long been known as an essential ingredient for Romance. Now you can shower that special someone with the traditional soft petals in drinkable form. Warm or iced, Velvet Garden is an elixir that is sure to strengthen your Sustainable Love. Haven't heard about Sustainable Love? It's a concept dreamt up by Good Clean Love oils. All of their oils are made with natural ingredients that nourish and soften the skin. They are superbly scented. We recommend a pairing with their Carribean Rose. And they use a portion of their profits to support Peace Initiatives around the world.

What's more romantic than that?

Ode to Numi's Velvet Garden 

Velvet Garden where I tread
Perfumed by roses, my soul is fed.
My lips kiss the nectar of white tea tips,
As I swallow fragrant sips
Of gentleness and delight,
In the morning and the night.

This elixir, this tonic, this potion
Has my always, forever, eternal devotion!
This tea of the rose from Heaven's heart
Is a gift to the world – a Cupid's dart.
If you haven't yet tried it, do not dismay,
One turn in the Garden, and you're lofted away!
