About lemon verbena

Lemon verbena is an aromatic plant cherished for its intensely lemony scent and flavour. Originally native to South America, lemon verbena quickly found its way into European herb gardens and kitchens. It is prized not only for its refreshing taste but also for its versatile uses in cooking and natural remedies. The bright green leaves exude an unmistakable fragrance reminiscent of fresh lemons.

Cultivation

Our lemon verbena is sourced from Paraguay in South America, where it thrives in its natural climate. The long, green leaves of the evergreen shrub are carefully hand-picked to ensure the highest quality. After harvesting, the leaves are gently wilted and naturally sun-dried. This traditional drying method ensures that the leaves retain their intense aromas and valuable nutrients.

Effects

Lemon verbena is rich in antioxidants, which help protect the body from free radicals and may have anti-inflammatory effects. Its calming properties on the nervous system make it an ideal choice for those seeking inner peace and relaxation. The tea is often valued for its ability to support digestion and promote a restful sleep. Additionally, the essential oils in lemon verbena may help alleviate stress and anxiety, making it a natural companion for moments of tranquillity.

How to enjoy

This caffeine-free tea is perfect for any time of day. Whether enjoyed as a refreshing start to your day or a soothing evening brew, Lemon Verbena brings a touch of freshness and lightness to every cup. It pairs beautifully with light dishes such as a fresh citrus salad, grilled vegetables, or a simple goat cheese tartine. For a sweet pairing, try it with lemon drizzle cake, almond biscotti, or a delicate lavender shortbread.
