About Almond
Almond (Prunus dulcis) is one of the world's most nutritious tree nuts, consumed for over 4,000 years for its health benefits and rich, nutty flavor. Almonds are packed with healthy fats, protein, fiber, vitamin E, magnesium, and antioxidants. Modern research extensively documents almonds' benefits for heart health, brain function, weight management, and skin health. In tea blends, almond adds creamy texture, subtle nutty flavor, and nutritional richness. At The Green Ritual, we use premium organic almond extracts and pieces in our blends, ensuring the highest quality and flavor in our indulgent Heaven's Velvet blend.
