Slava Ukraini! (Formerly Russian Caravan)
Slava Ukraini! (Formerly Russian Caravan)
There is just no way to sit by, sipping tea in peace while people and animals are being hurt. So, two days after the invasion, we changed the name from Russian Caravan to Slava Ukraini! and reformulated it slightly.
The original name: Russian Caravan originates way back to the 18th century when caravans of camels took the 6,000 mile harsh journey from China to Europe via Russia which often took at least 6 months of travel through the cold. In many cases they took the southern route through Odessa (Ukraine), but often it was farther north that the caravans of man and beast would trek… stopping along the way by campfires at night to keep warm, tell stories and drink tea. The romance and mystery of this tea lives on in this full bodied brew with smoky notes, a hint of bergamot and a smooth mellow finish. It warms the body and strengthens the mind and spirit to be able to take on the bitter cool nights and hold strong against challenge. This is indeed, a mighty tasty brew.
A portion of sales will be donated monthly to help Ukraine. You can find who we’ve donated to on our GenerosiTEA page.
