A Pleasant Earthy Flavor

Prunus serotina, more commonly known as wild cherry or black cherry, is a popular cherry tree found along the eastern region of North America. Wild cherry trees bear thousands of fragrant white blossoms and delicious dark cherry fruit, both of which have made them very popular as ornamental trees, used in gardens and landscaping. Wild cherry trees also create a very fine quality and expensive timber. While the fruit of the trees is often used in making jam, ice cream and dark chocolate, the bark is also useful for creating this high quality herbal tea. Wild cherry bark, when seen on the trunk of the tree, is thick and dark gray, cracked in various outer layers to make room for the growing tree. This bark is ground into a powder in order to make wild cherry bark tea, a mild, earthy brew that is easy to enjoy when complemented with a dash of sugar or honey. Buddha Teas presents you with fresh, organic wild cherry bark tea that comes packaged in unbleached, chemical free tea bags with no staples.
