What’s in it
Every herb in the blend, and where to read about it on its own.

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

Herb · Caffeine-free
Orange Peel
Citrus sinensis
Previously dismissed as 'just citrus,' orange peel contains hesperidin — a flavanone with genuine anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular evidence — plus polymethoxyflavones that show remarkable metabolic activity in preclinical studies. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, aged tangerine peel (chen pi) is one of the most prescribed herbs....
Bright, citrusy, slightly bitter, aromatic
-
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

Tea · Contains caffeine
Ceylon Black Tea
Camellia sinensis
Bright, brisk and citrus-edged, with a golden-orange cup — the tea that makes a blend taste lively rather than heavy. Sri Lanka's tea board recognises seven growing regions, and altitude does most of the work: Nuwara Eliya at 1,868 m gives the palest and most...
Bright, brisk and citrusy; golden-orange in the cup, with a clean finish
-
Fruit · Caffeine-free
Apple
Malus domestica
Dried apple pieces are the workhorse of fruit tea, and twenty-six products here carry them — more than any other fruit. They are doing a structural job rather than a flavour one: apple gives a fruit infusion its body and a mild background sweetness, and...
Mild, sweet and lightly tart, with a soft body; it rounds out a blend rather than leading it
What it goes with
Autumn in a cup. Sip alongside pumpkin pie, apple crumble, or cinnamon rolls. Pair with our Pumpkin Pie Spice and Cinnamon for a full fall baking ritual.

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!
