Organic Chamomile Tea

Chamomile is one of the most ancient herbs known to man and one of the oldest, most widely used and well documented herbs on the planet. Chamomile is a native of the old world and a member of the daisy family (Asteraceae). Traditionally used in aqueous form as a mild sedative to calm nerves and anxiety, promote relaxation and aid sleep by reducing insomnia and other sleep problems. Chamomile is highly valued as a digestive relaxant and can help soothe gastrointestinal disturbances such as indigestion, cramping and nausea.

Lending its name from the Greek ‘chamai melon’, which means ‘ground apple’, there is a crisp apple finish to chamomile tea that lies muddled beneath layers of slight earthiness and delicate florals. Add a little honey to your chamomile for a sweet dessert tea, or brew with a slice of red apple to accentuate its subtle fruity notes. Slightly under-steep the flowers to preserve that light, meadow-fresh flavour.
