Blended In-House — Caffeine-Free

"Real pain only starts after it's too late to stop."
      — Oriphi "Hope" Akmenos

Oriphi "Hope" Akmenos: Tiefling Fighter, Queen of Tiet’kala, Hero of the Wastes. A complex, conflicted blend for a complex, conflicted woman. Almost a blend to personify tieflings, if not specifically Hope, bright fruity flavors of blueberry and elderberry represent her humanity, her optimism, her hope, the earthy Turmeric represents the Earth she calls home, and the groundedness she holds onto, while dark spicy cayenne, smoky paprika, and tart hibiscus burn with her demonic roots, her dark dealings, and her morally-grey tendencies. Drink this, and feel what it feels like to walk a mile in any Tiefling's shoes, but particularly our poor friend Hope.

Shipping

We are a small independent operation, and as such we operate inside of our retail space, the Phoenix Pearl Tea Tavern in Red Lodge, MT. We bag teas for orders while also serving in-store customers, including making cups of tea, making food, and selling bulk and retail purchases. Our employees work as quickly as they can, but we don't have a warehouse to operate out of with dedicated employees. As such, orders may take anywhere from 1-5 business days to ship. Thank you for understanding.
