Green tea mint range

With a mission to make green tea a daily ritual for both tea and non-tea drinkers alike, Sencha Naturals is launching in the UK with its range of Green Tea Leaf Mints, which combat bad breath naturally while delivering all the antioxidant benefits of a cup of green tea.  Available exclusively through natural and organic wholesale distributor, Tree of Life, the range comes in five different flavours and is stylishly packaged making it ideal for impulse purchase points in retail outlets, food to go areas or cafés.

Founded in the US in 2001, Sencha Naturals is the brainchild of David Kerdoon. After travelling extensively throughout Asia, David became fascinated by the world of green tea and how it was being used beyond being just a drink.  On his return to the US he worked with tea masters and connoisseurs, herbalists and food formulators, finally launching Sencha Naturals – a socially responsible company with green tea at the core of unique products, the first being Green Tea Leaf Mints.

Available in five flavours: Original, Bombay Chai, Moroccan Mint, Pink Dragonfruit and Tropical Mango, all are made from a special Sen Cha blend of Organic Matcha and Sencha Green Tea, combined with natural sweetener Stevia, fruit and citrus extracts, spices and peppermint oils.  A single serving of three mints will provide the same levels of antioxidants as a cup of green tea, and contain just five calories.

“Green Tea Leaf Mints are not only good for you, they also help you conquer bad breath naturally as green tea actually inhibits the growth of oral bacteria,” says Kirsten Sowerby, marketing manager at Tree of Life.

“They are the perfect healthy and grown up alternative to gum and mints and have become a must stock staple for retailers and foodservice operators in the US.  The brand is now looking to emulate that success in the UK and tap into this country’s acceptance of green tea, challenging consumers to think of it as more than just a hot or cold drink.”

The Sencha Naturals Green Tea Leaf Mints come packaged in an attractive and recyclable hard case containing 60 mints.  Immediately available from Tree of Life, all flavours are priced at £2.99 (RRP).
