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

    Hibiscus

    Hibiscus sabdariffa

    The tart red one, and the ingredient whose colour is the point: those anthocyanins make a cup that is genuinely ruby, not brown. Hibiscus has been studied more than almost any other herbal infusion, and unusually the studies used the tea itself rather than an...

    Tart, cranberry-like, fruity, deeply colored

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Peppermint

    Mentha x piperita

    A natural hybrid of watermint and spearmint that humans have cultivated for centuries. Peppermint's menthol activates TRPM8 cold receptors, creating the sensation of cooling without changing actual temperature. Its rosmarinic acid content is the real pharmacological star in tea — highly water-soluble with genuine anti-inflammatory...

    Cool, refreshing, sharp menthol bite, slightly sweet

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Rosehips

    Rosa canina

    The fruit of the wild rose, containing 20 to 40 times more vitamin C than oranges in its fresh form. Here's the catch: most of that vitamin C degrades during drying and steeping. What the tea actually delivers is proanthocyanidins — water-extractable tannin antioxidants —...

    Tart, fruity, slightly sweet, cranberry-like

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Rose Petals

    Rosa gallica

    The honest assessment: rose petal tea's primary value is cultural, sensory, and ritualistic rather than pharmacological. Essential oil content in petals is vanishingly small (4,000 kg of flowers yields 1 kg of oil), so virtually all volatile terpenoids are lost in tea preparation. What the...

    Delicate, floral, slightly sweet, fragrant, subtle

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Spearmint

    Mentha spicata

    Peppermint's gentler parent. Where peppermint delivers a sharp menthol punch, spearmint leads with carvone — a softer, sweeter, rounder mint. It is the everyday mint: easy, approachable, and the one to reach for if peppermint is too cold or too strong. It is also the...

    Sweet, cool, mild mint, softer than peppermint, refreshing

  • Herb · Caffeine-free

    Calendula

    Calendula officinalis

    The pot marigold — not to be confused with the ornamental marigolds of the genus Tagetes, which have their own profile here. Calendula's reputation is largely topical, and as a tea ingredient the picture shifts: its most talked-about compounds, the faradiol triterpenoids, are fat-soluble and...

    Mild, slightly peppery, earthy, mildly bitter — provides golden color to blends

  • Tea · Caffeine-free

    Rooibos

    Aspalathus linearis

    Not tea. Rooibos is a needle-leaved shrub of the pea family that grows in one mountain range in the Western Cape and nowhere else, and since 2021 the name has been legally reserved for it. It is the base of thirty-three products here for one...

    Honey, dried fruit and vanilla with a little wood; smooth, naturally sweet, never bitter. Green rooibos is malty and slightly grassy

  • Flower · Caffeine-free

    Sunflower

    Helianthus annuus

    Bright yellow ray florets, dried — twelve products carry them, and almost always for the look. Sunflower petals are large, sturdy and hold their colour, so a pinch gives a dark tea the sort of yellow flash a grey-brown leaf cannot produce on its own....

    Faintly honeyed and grassy; a colour ingredient rather than a flavour one

    Learn more

  • Flower · Caffeine-free

    Osmanthus

    Osmanthus fragrans

    Tiny golden flowers with the scent of ripe peaches or apricots — which is the most useful thing to know about them, because it explains why osmanthus is blended with fruit and with tea rather than used as a floral note in the way rose...

    The scent of ripe peaches and apricots — sweet, fruity and floral at once rather than perfumey

This blend is the most delicious mint blend I have tried and I have had many over the years. This tea is satisfying at anytime of day winter or summer. It is a soft, sweet blend without loosing the zing of the mint. This tea has been a comfort when winter cold season comes along and it helps me to relax before bed. In summer our family enjoys it iced with a few fresh spearmint leaves added in. Any guest I serve this to always asks where I got it. That speaks for itself.

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.
