Stash Blueberry Tea

The first blueberries were commercially cultivated from wild stock in New Jersey in 1920. The cultivated berries thrived in the acidic boggy soils of the area, which up until this point, were considered unsuitable for farming. Today, most commercially cultivated blueberries are grown in North America, with some cultivation in Western Europe and New Zealand.

In the past, the names "blueberry" and "bilberry" were both used, however now the name "blueberry" is used for the cultivated fruits. Cultivated blueberries are hybrids of three native American species, the highbush V corymbosum, the V ashei and the lowbush V angustifolia. The cultivated varieties are very different than their wild cousins. They may be four times as large with a pleasing combination of acidity and sweetness. Wild blueberries are small in size and are not as sweet. Wild Blueberries can be found wherever acidic soil and plentiful water exist.

At Stash Tea we blend the whole blueberry fruit, natural blueberry flavor extracts and premium quality Chinese and Indian black teas. The result is a smooth, rich tea with the fruity aroma and pleasing flavor of blueberries. This tea may be enjoyed any time of the day but is especially good as a dessert drink with a little sugar added.
