Herbs such as chamomile, lavender and lemon balm have long been used in evening infusions to accompany a moment of stillness after a busy day. At Thea Botanicals we blend these into loose leaf teas designed for the quiet ritual of winding down, rather than for any specific medical outcome.

Technically, herbal tea is a tisane - an infusion of herbs, flowers or roots rather than the Camellia sinensis plant used in traditional tea. We use both terms because that is how most people search and speak, though everything we blend is, strictly speaking, a tisane.

Chamomile has been used for centuries as a gentle evening infusion, valued for its soft, apple-like flavour and its traditional association with rest and ease. We include it in several blends for those seeking a calmer way to close the day.

Loose leaf tea generally contains whole or larger pieces of herb, allowing a fuller flavour and a more generous infusion than the fine dust often found in standard bags. This is why we blend exclusively in loose leaf form, favouring depth of flavour over convenience.

Herbs such as chamomile, lavender, lemon balm, valerian and passionflower have traditionally been used to accompany moments of rest and quiet reflection. Our blends draw on this long history of herbal tradition, combined thoughtfully for flavour as well as ritual.

Organic herbs are grown without synthetic pesticides, which many people find reassuring when choosing something they'll drink daily. Our herbs are sourced from certified organic growers, so you can trust both the origin and the care behind every leaf.
