Herbal Tea Seed Collection

CLASSIFICATION: Tisane Cultivars VOLUME: 6 Essential Varietals ROLE: The Apothecary YIELD: Infinite Infusions

The commercial tea bag is a study in opacity. You are often drinking "dust"—the oxidized remnants of a mechanized harvest. The true connoisseur understands that to control the cup, one must control the leaf.

This collection is your official exit from the subscription model. It is a curated archive of six essential botanicals designed to establish a functioning home tea garden. Whether you are seeking the sedative properties of Chamomile or the adaptogenic power of Tulsi, this kit allows you to become the master blender.

It transforms the act of making tea from a passive consumption habit into an active botanical ritual. You are not just brewing; you are extracting fresh, organic compounds from a living source.

THE CURATOR'S NOTES

• The Adaptogen: We include Holy Basil (Kapoor Tulsi). In Ayurveda, it is the "Elixir of Life." It offers a spicy, clove-like complexity that restores balance to the over-caffeinated nervous system.
• The Sedative: German Chamomile provides the classic apple-scented calm. These are not the stale, crushed flowers of the grocery store; these are whole, potent blooms.
• The Defense: Purple Coneflower (Echinacea) is the immune system’s architect. Grow it for its beauty; harvest it for its resilience against the common cold.
• The Flavor Engines: Peppermint and Lemon Balm are the workhorses. They provide the high notes—invigorating menthol and bright citrus—that lift a blend from "medicinal" to "delicious."
• The Hazardous Material: Stinging Nettle. Be advised: This plant demands respect. It is packed with minerals and earthy flavor, but it bites. Harvest with gloves; brew with pride.
• The Bespoke Clause: We recognize that taste is subjective. If you wish to swap Nettle for a less aggressive herb, simply note your preference in the "buyer's note" at checkout. We facilitate; you decide.
