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.

Love this tea!
I drink tea all day. In the evenings, I switched to chamomile since it’s calming & contains no caffeine. But I grew tired of its flavor. So I went on a search & found Klio Tea. I especially like this Cretan Blend because it has a good/strong flavor that I enjoy. I invested in some tea strainers & load it up with this blend, combining it with Klio’s Organic Lemon Verbena for an enjoyable cup of tea. I highly recommend this product & this company. I’m planning to purchase this tea for upcoming Christmas gifts for my friends & family.
United StatesSurprisingly Tasty!
I'm not a regular tea drinker, but wanted to try this one for the health benefits. I'm very pleased with my purchase. In the past I would order things like this from amazon, however I wanted to make sure I was getting what I was paying for and not a handful of weeds from some fake venders backyard. I will continue to purchase this directly from Kilo Tea.
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.
Great Cretan Blend
Great quality, healthy tea. We enjoy all of the Klio teas.
