Ancient Herbal Wisdom Meets Modern Tea
This blend unites powerful healing traditions. The Assam tea delivers thearubigins and theaflavins that enhance mental clarity and cardiovascular health. Licorice root contains glycyrrhizin, which soothes digestive tissues and supports respiratory health. Its compounds strengthen the adrenal system and help maintain healthy cortisol levels.
Anise provides anethole, a compound that aids digestion and reduces inflammation.

The cornflower adds subtle antioxidant properties while beautifying the blend.
From Ancient Egypt to British India
This blend connects multiple healing traditions. Licorice root was so valued in ancient Egypt that large quantities were found in King Tutankhamun's tomb, while Greek physicians prescribed it for respiratory health. Anise was prized by Romans for both culinary and medicinal uses. The discovery of native tea plants in Assam in the 1830s revolutionized tea cultivation in India. Even cornflowers carry cultural significance, traditionally used in European folk medicine for their gentle healing properties.
