This new product saves on packaging. We have removed the need for a cellophane wrapper, and moved to FSC grade cardboard. The box now contains 100 tea bags and as compared to 5 x 20 tea bag boxes and saves around 80% packaging materials. Our customers, when asked, welcomed changes like this and we are rolling it through our Tea Bag range.
With a light and refreshing signature taste, Chamomile Flowers possess a clean and sweet flavour that finishes with delicate floral notes. We select only the whole buds of the chamomile flower as it embodies a much more developed flavour.
The name ‘Chamomile’ comes from the Ancient Greek words kamai (earth) and melon (apple). It’s an appropriate description as these delicate flowers thrive in almost any soil and have a sweet apple-like scent. It is a closely related cousin of the daisy, Chamomile’s yellow flower heads and white petals tend to track the sun across the day.
Chamomile tea is well known to have a myriad of health benefits and has been used to help relieve patients stomach cramps and even help with insomnia. It has been used in skin care for centuries, due to its active ingredient Bisabolol, which is said to enhance the appearance of dehydrated or damaged skin, restore suppleness and because of its high panthenol concentration, it can stimulate and promote hair growth. For hundreds of years, people have used it for its anti-irritant, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties.
Technically Chamomile is not a tea as it does not come from a tea bush, but a herbal infusion or ‘tisane’, but to keep things easier we call it a tea.
