Herbal Teas

Herbal teas have been one of the most important applications of traditional herbalism for hundreds of years. Hot water helps release the valuable ingredients so that they can be easily absorbed by the body. Each herb represents a unique complex of active ingredients, sometimes combining hundreds of individual compounds. We select only the highest quality herbs from the best terroirs around the world, either from certified organic cultivation or wildcrafting. Our farms are often small, passionate family-run businesses with a long history of cultivating and processing the highest quality herbs and wild plants.

Cultivation & Processing

Our sage tea is wild-grown and harvested by farmers around Mt. Olympus, the most famous mountainous region for herbal tea in Greece. The trees grow at an elevation of 1,100m. The tea farm we source from is family-owned, and has generations' worth of knowledge of local herbs.
