Organic herbal tea Linden Relax Digestion Sweating, 20g
Traditional European Linden Flower Tea
Linden flower tea derives from the Tilia genus, particularly Tilia cordata (small-leaved lime), harvested at peak flowering for optimal bioactive compound preservation. These delicate, aromatic flowers undergo careful air-drying to maintain their natural flavonoids, including quercetin and kaempferol. Each flower cluster contains both the characteristic pale yellow blooms and their distinctive wing-shaped bracts, providing the tea's signature honey-like aroma and soothing properties.
This premium herbal tea features hand-selected linden blossoms, validated for purity and potency through systematic quality testing. The processing method preserves the tea's natural compounds, including essential flavonoids, mucilage, and volatile oils, which contribute to its therapeutic properties and delicate flavor profile.

Linden tea holds a revered position in European herbal tradition, particularly in Germanic and Slavic cultures. For centuries, the linden tree has been considered sacred, often planted in village centers as a symbol of community and peace. Medieval herbalists documented its use in monasteries and early medical texts.
In traditional European medicine, linden tea gained prominence during the Renaissance period, when it became known as the "pharmacy of the poor" due to its widespread availability and diverse applications.
