The resulting infusion offers a mild, slightly sweet flavor profile with subtle earthy undertones. It is a popular choice for those seeking a soothing beverage at any time of day. The tea is known for its delicate aroma and smooth finish.

To prepare, place one tea bag or one teaspoon of loose leaves into a mug. Pour hot water, just off the boil, over the leaves. Allow it to steep for 5 to 7 minutes, or longer for a stronger flavor. Remove the tea bag or strain the leaves. You can enjoy it plain, or add a touch of honey, lemon, or a splash of milk if desired. For iced tea, brew a stronger batch and pour over ice.
