{"product_id":"ember-peach-tea","title":"EMBER PEACH | The Ease","description":"\u003cp\u003eEmber Peach is a loose leaf black tea blended with rose petals, cornflower, and peach, formulated for afternoon deceleration — the gradual transition out of output mode before the day fully closes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNot everything needs to be a hard close. Some transitions are gradual — the pace slowing before it stops, the attention widening before it releases. Ember Peach is built for that. The deceleration between the last work block and the end of the day. Not a reset, not a restart. An ease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe blend: black tea base for light caffeine and the structure that holds the blend together. Rose petals for the floral softness — the aromatic note that shifts the cup from functional to intentional. Cornflower for color and the quiet visual cue that the blend is something different. Peach for the natural sweetness and the warmth of the finish — fruit-forward without being dessert, present without demanding attention. The blend is gentle by design. It doesn't push. It allows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe role in the system: Ember Peach is the afternoon ease — the 3pm cup when the day is winding toward its close but hasn't arrived yet.

The black tea base is sensitive to over-steeping — 5 minutes is the ceiling before bitterness develops. The rose petals and peach are delicate; they express best at the lower end of the temperature range for black tea.

It's the deceleration cup: the transition between the productive workday and the closing ritual. Not energizing enough to restart a focused work block, not caffeine-free enough to signal the full close. It sits in the seam between the two.

The L-theanine in black tea moderates the caffeine delivery, producing calm alertness rather than stimulation. It's enough to stay present through the afternoon without pushing back against the deceleration the blend is designed to support.

Peach slows the pace. Hibiscus closes it. Use them in sequence for a complete afternoon-to-evening transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the peach flavor come from natural or artificial flavoring?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural. The peach character in Ember Peach comes from dried peach pieces and natural peach flavoring — no artificial compounds. The blend is designed to taste like actual peach alongside actual rose petals — subtle, natural, and present without being artificial sweetness. What you smell when you open the tin is what you taste in the cup.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zero Chaos Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51878257492249,"sku":"TPEACH-TEA-3OZ-COMP","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/7905\/5897\/files\/Ember_Peach.png?v=1775077887","url":"https:\/\/zerochaoscoffee.com\/products\/ember-peach-tea","provider":"Zero Chaos Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
