The Blue Ridge Mountains are believed to be over 500 million years old, making this one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world. They were named for the blue hue that is visible when viewed from afar. Shenandoah National Park is comprised of part of the Blue Ridge Mountains, with the broad Shenandoah River and Valley on the west side, and the rolling hills of the Virginia Piedmont on the east.


In the early 1900's, amid the growing urbanization of America, people needed a place for recreation and refuge outside of city limits, so mountain resorts and summer vacation homes became much-needed getaways. The area now known as Shenandoah National Park was one of the popular tourist destinations. In 1929, the same year Simpson & Vail was incorporated, President Herbert Hoover, seeking solace in the wilderness, built a family vacation home within the Blue Ridge Mountains and helped materialize the construction of the, now famous, scenic Skyline Drive, which runs the full length of Shenandoah National Park.

Congress authorized the National Park Service in 1925 to acquire land to form Shenandoah National Park. However, they also deemed that no federal funds could be used, and Virginia was left to raise private funds to create this park. With a recommendation from the Southern Appalachian National Park Committee, the northern portion of the Blue Ridge Mountains was authorized as an official national park in 1935.

The spectacular Blue Ridge Mountains and lush forests that comprise Shenandoah National Park served as the inspiration for our refreshing, misty green colored cup. With the plethora of fruits, herbs, and flowers found in Shenandoah, narrowing down the many choices took some time and testing. Ultimately, I settled on a blend that makes you feel like you're on a relaxing vacation among the thousands of green trees and flowers throughout the park. The lively notes of lemon are accompanied by a hint of ginger and a delicate elderberry finish. A bonus to this blend is the addition of the butterfly pea flowers-get a blue flower in your teaspoon to experience a unique blue/green colored cup.

Ingredients: Green tea, lemon peel, ginger pieces, natural lemon flavor, elderberry flavor, and butterfly pea flowers.

Brew tea at 180º - steep for 2 minutes.

4 Ounces of loose tea makes approximately 50 cups of tea.

Please note that the photo is shown for our 4oz tin. We are also offering this in a 4oz pkg size, which will come in one of our double lined bags labeled with the name of the tea.

Best Tea Ever!

We planned a return trip to Shenandoah for Memorial weekend this year, which of course we had to cancel, so my husband surprised me with this tea. It's so perfect, from the scent when you open the tin, to the brewed color, to the fresh taste. It brought back memories of misty mornings up on the trail. It's my new favorite tea!

Taste the rain cloud

This tea is BLUE!! Come drink the rain cloud! This tea is a blue/green/grey.... the color of rainclouds. The longer you let it seep, the darker the storm clouds.Now, drinking this tea brought up a very specific memory for me. My extended family has a house on Lake Rabun in Appalachia and we have a view of about a mile of the lake. When it rains you can see the rain coming down the lake in a wave. And it pushes a breeze out in front of it. This tea tastes like the breeze and the rain and looks like the lake under rain clouds.Looking at the ingredients I thought it would taste like Walt Whitman's green tea with lemon and ginger (the Get Better Tea). But, honestly, I could barely taste those, they blended well with the green tea base. I have to assume the cool flavor is the butterfly pea.I had 6 cups of this yesterday. 3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon... trying to figure out what that taste was and why it made me think of rain.This tea wants you to feel the rain come in and drink it up.
