Collection: Best-Selling Dark Roast Yaupon Tea | Loose Leaf & Sachets

There's a reason yaupon was the drink of choice for Native American councils, ceremonies, and long hunts — it delivers clean, grounded energy with none of the crash. Our dark roast amplifies yaupon's natural character into something bold, smoky, and deeply satisfying.

Slow-roasted to deepen the flavors, each batch develops warm notes of toasted nuts, caramel, and a whisper of woodsmoke — finishing smooth without a trace of bitterness. Brew it strong and dark like an espresso ritual, or steep it gentle and sip it slow.

Grown and harvested sustainably in the American Southeast, every ounce honors Catawba tradition — from plant to package, 100% Native American made.
