Description
Sweet Dreams Tea BIO (17 × 2 g) 34 g - Yogi Tea
Sweet Dreams Tea is an organic herbal and floral blend from Yogi Tea, formulated for the evening. The core of the recipe consists of chamomile flower 17%, lavender flower 5%, and hops 1.5% – ingredients present for generations in European herbal tradition as part of the end-of-day ritual. These are complemented by fennel, peppermint, lemongrass, lemon balm, sage, cardamom, and nutmeg.
The composition contains no tea leaves or other caffeine-containing ingredients, so the infusion can be prepared even late in the evening. The character of the blend is enhanced by lavender oil 1.4%, noticeable immediately upon opening the package. All ingredients come from organic cultivation.
Taste and Aroma
The infusion is gently sweet and slightly anise-like – this is due to fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), one of the staple ingredients in Yogi Tea blends. Against this backdrop, the floral notes of chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla) and lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) stand out, along with the citrus freshness of lemongrass and lemon balm, broken by the cool accent of peppermint. The finish is herbal and spicy, with a delicate bitterness from hop cones (Humulus lupulus) and a warm background of cardamom and nutmeg. The infusion has an amber-gold color.
When to reach for the infusion
This is an evening tea – after dinner, with a book, as a regular part of your home bedtime routine. It also works well during the day as a caffeine-free alternative to black tea or coffee. It tastes good on its own, without additions; if you prefer a sweeter profile, a teaspoon of honey pairs well with it, enhancing the floral character of lavender and chamomile.
Yogi Tea composes its blends based on the Ayurvedic principle of combining herbs and spices into multi-ingredient recipes – hence the extensive composition and the noticeable spicy layer in most of the brand's teas. The sachets are packed in paper envelopes that protect the aroma until brewing.
The package contains 17 sachets of 2 g each (34 g).
