Beyond the cup
Stress relief through the heart, not just the head. Hawthorn supports healthy cardiovascular function while warming spices — cinnamon, ginger, cloves — ground you when anxiety makes everything feel scattered. Traditionally used in both Ayurvedic and European traditions for nervous tension, restlessness, and the kind of stress that sits in your chest. This one builds over weeks of regular use — make it a daily ritual.
What’s in it
Every herb in the blend, and where to read about it on its own.

Herb · Caffeine-free
Ginger
Zingiber officinale
The universal connector — ginger appears in more products than any other ingredient in the collection. The dried root is chemically distinct from fresh ginger: drying converts gingerols to shogaols, which are about twice as pungent, and that is why dried ginger tastes deeper and...
Pungent, warm, slightly sweet, citrusy (fresh); warm, mellow, deep (dried)
-
Herb · Caffeine-free
Hawthorn
Crataegus monogyna
The cardiovascular herb with the deepest clinical evidence base in European phytotherapy. Hawthorn berry and leaf extracts have been studied in over 30 clinical trials for heart failure, demonstrating significant improvements in exercise tolerance, ejection fraction, and symptoms. The active compounds — oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs)...
Mildly sweet, slightly tart, fruity, apple-like undertones
-
Spice · Caffeine-free
Cinnamon
Cinnamomum verum, C. burmannii, C. loureiroi
The inner bark of a laurel tree, peeled, dried and curled into quills. Three different trees are sold under the one name, and the shop carries all three: Ceylon (Cinnamomum verum), the soft, papery, floral one from Sri Lanka; Korintje (C. burmannii) from the Kerinci...
Sweet, woody, warm — Ceylon floral and citrusy, Korintje smooth and familiar, Saigon bold and fiery-sweet
-
Spice · Caffeine-free
Cardamom
Elettaria cardamomum
Green pods holding small black seeds, from a ginger-family plant of the Western Ghats — floral, resinous and eucalyptus-cool, quite unlike anything else in the cupboard. It is the third most expensive spice in the world after saffron and vanilla, which is why it is...
Floral, resinous, eucalyptus-cool and sweet-warm; the main volatiles are terpinyl acetate and eucalyptol
-
Spice · Caffeine-free
Cloves
Syzygium aromaticum
An unopened flower bud, picked and dried until it looks like a small nail — which is where the name comes from, via Latin clavus. Cloves are the loudest spice in the cupboard: eugenol makes up somewhere between 45 and 90 per cent of the...
Hot, sweet, numbing and medicinal-warm
-
Spice · Caffeine-free
Black Pepper
Piper nigrum
The dried unripe berry of a climbing vine — the mill on every table, and the most travelled object in any kitchen. Black, white and green pepper are all the same berry, picked at different moments and treated differently: black is picked unripe and dried...
Warm, woody, resinous and sharp; the bite is piperine, roughly a hundredth as potent as capsaicin
-
Flower · Caffeine-free
Safflower
Carthamus tinctorius
Orange-red petals that turn water golden — one of the world's oldest crops, and in a tea blend it is there for colour more than for taste. It looks enough like saffron that English called it bastard saffron and false saffron, and it has been...
Light, slightly bitter and hay-like, faintly floral; colour first and flavour a distant second
-
Flower · Caffeine-free
Malva
Malva sylvestris
The same plant as blue mallow, under the name a supplier happened to use — malva flowers and blue mallow flowers are both Malva sylvestris, and the shop's ingredient lists use both words. Two products carry them under this spelling. Reddish-purple petals with dark stripes,...
Very mild and faintly sweet, with a soft, slightly slippery body
Good for
When you can't calm down
- Hawthorn, traditionally used in herbal medicine as a heart tonic in the European tradition
- Cinnamon and cardamom, traditionally used to warm and to help relieve digestive discomfort
- Sweet, spiced and naturally caffeine-free — like a warm hug
- The evening cup on a cold night

What it goes with
Bridge the body and the mind. Our Lavender Flower adds the neurological calming that this blend's cardiovascular approach doesn't fully cover — together, you're addressing stress from both sides. Our Vanilla Bean deepens the grounding, comfort quality.

The maple peach is delicious. What a beautiful combination. I will most definitely order it again, and a higher quantity of it.

Always handy
I use dillweed often. This dill is fresh and has a nice aroma. I use it in marinades, salad dressings, and on fish. Good stuff.

It worked beautifully; perhaps if I add a little more honey, it would make it better… It is a wellness tea, after all!
