Their crystals are cold-extracted using only wild-harvested leaves from 250-year-old tea trees. Plus, they triple toxin screen for heavy metals, pesticides, and toxic mold—contaminants commonly found in tea. I also use the crystals for iced tea, which saves a ton of time and hassle.<a href="http://piquetea.com/Tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pique</a>&nbsp;is offering&nbsp;<a href="http://piquetea.com/Tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">15% off of their pu’er teas</a>&nbsp;for the first time ever, exclusively to my listeners.&nbsp;Simply visit&nbsp;<a href="http://piquetea.com/Tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">PiqueTea.com/Tim</a>, and the discount will be automatically applied.&nbsp;They also offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee, so your purchase is completely risk free.
