Bioprograma Mountain Herbal Tea Stara Planina (20 tea bags x 1.5g)

A cup that carries the air of the Balkan Mountains — wild apple, rosehip and meadow herbs gathered in the spirit of Stara Planina, sealed into 20 single-cup filter bags from Bulgaria.

Bioprograma Mountain Herbal Tea Stara Planina (Bulgarian: Staroplaninski Chai) takes its name from the Balkan mountain range that runs across the heart of Bulgaria. Made by Bioprograma, a long-standing Bulgarian herb house, it gathers aromatic mountain and meadow plants into one easy, comforting cup.

Tart wild apple and rosehip give it a gently fruity backbone, while yarrow, wild strawberry leaf, quince leaf and thyme add a soft, herbaceous mountain-meadow character. It pours a warm color with a fragrant aroma and a smooth, naturally caffeine-free finish — a soothing, relaxing cup.

How to Enjoy It

Steep one filter bag in 250 to 300ml of freshly boiled water for 5 to 7 minutes, then remove — enough for one or two cups. Lovely on its own, or with a spoon of honey. A natural choice for a calm afternoon or a quiet evening. One pack holds 20 bags.

What Makes It Special

Authentically imported from Bulgaria and built on whole herbs and fruit, this blend captures the wild, aromatic feel of the Stara Planina mountains — the kind of everyday herbal cup found in Bulgarian homes.
