Occulter Creates a Collection of Black Metal-Inspired Teas

— June 8, 2011 — Lifestyle
Occulter is a unique company created by the founders of Black Sheep & Prodigal Sons, which specializes in art, fashion and culture involving black metal and cult-like traditions.

Occulter has released a new lineup of goods you wouldn't expect to see from a company that idolizes black metal. Part of their new collection is a lineup that includes a collection of teas and even their signature black honey for sweetener.

The tea is noted to be strong and tasteful, that any true tea drinker would enjoy. I never knew tea was a big think in the black metal music and arts community, but now I'm starting to think it is. After all those harsh vocals what better way to sooth your throat than with a cup of Occulter tea.
