Ingredient Glossary

Every botanical we blend with, and what it brings to the cup. Sensory notes and traditional context only - we don't make claims about what any herb will do for you.

Anise

A mild, sweet warmth with a soft liquorice edge. Long enjoyed after eating. In: Tummy Tea.

Black pepper

A quiet heat that arrives at the finish rather than the front. In: Spice & Roots.

Blue lotus

A delicate floral note, historically tied to rest and reflection in Egyptian tradition. Gives a pale, luminous colour. In: The Dreamer, Dream Drops, The Flower Ritual Set.

Burdock root

Deep and earthy, with a grounding, almost roasted character. In: Tummy Tea, Spice & Roots.

Butterfly pea flower

Turns water a deep celestial blue - the colour shifts toward violet with anything acidic. Very little flavour of its own. In: The Dreamer, Dream Drops.

Chamomile

A gentle, familiar floral calm. Soft apple-sweet aroma. In: Tummy Tea, Sleep & Reset, The Dreamer, Dream Drops, The Flower Ritual Set.

Cinnamon

A comforting, spiced warmth. In: Tummy Tea.

Cloves

A deep, warming character - used in small measure, as a little goes a long way. In: Tummy Tea.

Dandelion root

Earthy with a roasted, coffee-adjacent quality. In: Spice & Roots, Digest Drops.

Fennel seed

A mild, sweet warmth. Traditionally enjoyed after a meal. In: Spice & Roots.

Lavender

A soft, soothing aroma. Easy to overdo, so we don't. In: Sleep & Reset, The Dreamer.

Lemon balm

Soft citrus, gently herbaceous. In: Sleep & Reset.

Liquorice root

A naturally sweet, rounding warmth that softens sharper herbs around it. In: Tummy Tea, Spice & Roots, Respira Drops.

A soft, rounded body - it's what gives a cup its texture rather than its flavour. In: Tummy Tea, Respira Drops.

Milk thistle seed

A quiet, nutty base note. Long-used in traditional European herbalism. In: Digest Drops.

Mullein leaf

A soft, hay-sweet character, gentle enough for any hour. In: Respira Drops, The Clarity Duo, The Flower Ritual Set.

A mild, quieting finish. In: Sleep & Reset, The Dreamer.

Peppermint

Bright, cooling and stimulating - which is exactly why we suggest it for mornings and afternoons rather than an evening wind-down. In: The Clarity Duo.

Plantain leaf

A green, steadying note. Not the fruit - the common lawn herb. In: Tummy Tea.

Rose

A gentle floral lift. Soft, romantic aroma. In: Tummy Tea, The Flower Ritual Set.

Rosehips

Bright and fruity, with a tart finish. In: InnerGlow.

Seabuckthorn berries
