About Morocco

Morocco is a country on the northwestern coast of Africa. Morocco does not produce tea, because it is too arid, but it is a major importer of tea, and it is also a producer of mint and other ingredients in herbal teas.The climate in morocco becomes more arid as one travels southward; the southernmost areas are barren desert.
Morocco has a rich culture of tea drinking; most tea consumed in Morocco is green tea with mint, often referred to in the outside world as Moroccan mint tea. Typically, gunpowder green tea and spearmint are used. The tea is usually sweetened.
