Cretan Blend (Crete)
Klio Cretan Blend is a combination of two famous herbs from the Greek island of Crete: Diktamo, also known as "Dittany of Crete" and Malotira, the local Greek mountain tea of Crete. Both herbs are endemic to the island, growing in the rugged mountainous areas. They are revered by the Cretans for their abundant health properties.

Amazing flavor
My son and I are daily tea drinkers, and this has replaced all other tea blends (herbal or otherwise) as his most-requested. Follow the brewing directions, and sweeten with honey for rich-bodied drink with incredible aroma and amazing flavor.

Cretan Blend
My mother in-law loves it. She said it has a smokey like flavor, which she thought was very unusual, but very tasty. Kilo Tea staff makes you feel like you are part of their community. No matter how big the volume of customers they must have they still let you know what is going on every step of the way.
