Nordic Green – Organic Herbal Tea

Nordic Green made from dried fireweed for the morning

Nordic Green by Plukt is a caffeine-free organic herbal tea from Latvia, made from 100% dried fireweed leaves in 25 pyramid bags. Light golden in the cup, citrus-scented and gently sweet. Not a classic green tea, but a mild, caffeine-free alternative to it.

Nordic Green by Plukt is a light organic herbal infusion from Latvia, derived from dried, unfermented leaves of the fireweed, Chamaenerion angustifolium. Inside the beautiful gift tin are 25 pyramid bags totaling 40g, completely caffeine-free. The cup is light golden and citrus-fresh.

Light golden, citrus-fresh, gently sweet

Nordic Green has a fresh, clear citrus aroma and provides a light golden cup. On the palate, it remains light and mild, grassy, floral, and soft, with a sweet finish.

Those who enjoy green tea but do not want to be wide awake in the evening will find a mild, caffeine-free alternative here. We drink it in the morning and throughout the day—plain, because it stands so clearly on its own. It is also a light companion after a meal, keeping the palate fresh without being heavy. Whether you prefer it lighter or darker, you can find our other teas in pyramid bags alongside it.

Dried instead of fermented

For Nordic Green, the fireweed leaves are only gently dried, not fermented. The gentler the drying process using wind and solar energy, the lighter the color and the fresher the taste remain. The fireweed, a bright pink summer guest in the Nordic meadows, imparts its light, grassy aroma into the cup. While black and green tea come from far away, this plant grows right on the doorstep of the manufacturer.

This creates a completely different, much lighter infusion from the same wild plant found in the dark Nordic Black, reminiscent of green tea. The pyramid bags are made of plant fiber. PLŪKT means "picked" in Latvian, which describes the entirely manual work involved. We like that.

Māra and the wild herbs of Latvia

Behind Plukt is Māra Lieplapa, who hand-picks and gently processes the wild plants of her homeland, as Lieplapa likes to share. At her teahouse in the small village of Saulessēta in the Prauliena municipality, she holds masterclasses and tea ceremonies. A small idea has grown into a brand whose wild herbs are now enjoyed far beyond Latvia.

Nordic Green is the light sister of the fermented Nordic Black, and a great introduction if you want to try wild herbs from Latvia for the first time, including as a gift for tea lovers. The White Night is more floral and rounded for the evening. You can discover the entire world of Plukt in the collection.

On warm days, it becomes a light cold brew

Rinse the cup with hot water, place a pyramid bag inside, and pour boiling water over it. Cover and steep for five to seven minutes, and Nordic Green reveals its fresh, citrus-clear aroma. On warm days, it can be made into a light cold brew: place a bag in 500 ml of cold water, shake briefly, and let it steep for up to 8 hours. It is best enjoyed plain; a squeeze of lemon highlights the fresh note.
