Alcaçuz - Hortelã

The smell alone sold me—earthy licorice balanced by that sharp mint kick. Steeped for five minutes and it's genuinely refreshing without the caffeine jitters, perfect for a late-evening cup.

I was skeptical about a licorice-mint blend, but this one nails the balance perfectly—the mint stays crisp while the licorice adds a gentle sweetness that lingers. Since it's caffeine-free, it's become my go-to evening cup when I want something comforting without staying wired.

The licorice really comes through smooth and sweet while the mint keeps it bright on the finish, and I love that there’s zero caffeine so I can sip it late without any jitters. My second box is already on the way.
