A sweet New Brunswick tradition, steeped in comfort
Inspired by Ganong’s beloved Chicken Bones Candy—handcrafted in nearby St. Stephen since 1885—this rooibos-based blend is a soothing twist on a Maritime classic. With rich cacao, warm cinnamon, and actual pieces of Chicken Bones candy, it’s a chocolate-forward tea with a gentle spice and a playful, nostalgic finish.
Naturally caffeine-free, this tea is perfect for unwinding in the evening or sharing with guests as a sweet local treat. Blended by hand at Garden by the Sea to honour the legacy and artistry behind the candy that inspired it.
Why we think you’ll love it: It’s a rich, cozy, cinnamon-kissed cup of local history—without the caffeine.
