Taste all the flavours

Steep Peak Teas:

Steep Peak uses four main tea bases in our brews to build flavour upon, all of which are organic.

Our black tea is Indian Tonganagaon Assam and is Fair Trade. Flavours described with this tea are silky smooth with light notes of spice and malt, along with toasty nuances. The Tonganagaon estate, where the tea is grown, is a small tea garden located near the Namdapha National Park, one of the richest areas of biodiversity in all of India.

We use a Jasmine Fair Trade Tea for Steep Peak green tea blends. Jasmine tea has a fresh, floral aroma providing a delicate flavour to the Kombucha. The tea leaves are harvested in early spring and stored until late summer when fresh jasmine flowers are in bloom. The jasmine flowers are picked early in the mounting when they are still closed and kept cool until nightfall. During the night, jasmine flowers open and this is when the tea scenting takes place.

Earl Grey Tea is a traditional tea favourite that is not typically found used in Kombucha. Steep Peak has creatively developed an Earl Grey blend that highlights the traditional bergamot flavour that regular Earl Grey drinkers crave. This unique Earl Grey Kombucha highlights the citrus flavours from bergamot oil and is added Ceylon Tea, resulting in a truly refreshing Kombucha.

Our Red Rooibos tea is our low caffeinated kombucha, perfect for nighttime sipping by the fire. The flavour profile is fruity, sweet, mild and smooth and is also both organic and fair trade. The origin of Red Rooibos tea is from South Africa.

Seasonal Flavours

Steep Peak loves it when our community shares their bounty.

Crisp and tart rhubarb in spring, mint and lemon balm in the summer, a greenhouse full of concord grapes and trees full of crab apples and plums in the fall are examples of generous gifts we are genuinely excited to showcase in our latest seasonal flavours. We are constantly crafting new flavours in creative ways to highlight local fare.

We also stockpile and process seasonal produce that we purchase locally or regionally through our travels. After processing we tuck these ingredients away for later brews to enjoy year-round. From watermelons, orchard peaches, roasted pumpkins, sweet persimmons - we love using these unique flavours as they are available.

Wildcrafting

Steep Peak also offers seasonal brews that are limited production that use ingredients that surround our community. Our seasonal brews are often wildcrafted and showcase our unique Rocky Mountain region.

What is Wildcrafting? Wildcrafting is the practice of harvesting plants from the wild. Steep Peak loves the process of exploring nature, identifying plants, appreciating their qualities, and showcasing their value. We value harvesting in a sustainable manner.

Some examples of our wildcrafted flavours:

In late spring, fresh and new White Spruce tips are harvested in the valley floor to make our Spruce Tip + Black Tea Kombucha, our IPA of the Kombucha world.

During August, we head to higher elevations to collect the umbels of Black Elderberries to make our Elderberry Honey + Green Tea Kombucha that incorporates floral notes of lavender.
