Tregothnan Chamomile Loose Leaf Pyramids

The classic evening tea — a soft, honeyed, slightly apple-like infusion with a quiet, settling finish. Made from whole chamomile flowers, blended and packed at Tregothnan in Tresillian, Cornwall.

A caffeine-free infusion in fifteen biodegradable silken pyramids, made by Tregothnan — England's pioneering tea estate, tended by the same family since 1334.

Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla) has been used as a calming infusion in England for centuries — Culpeper wrote about it in 1653. The flowers are picked at full bloom, dried whole, and used here without crushing. Whole flowers brew slower and cleaner than the dust-grade chamomile that fills most teabags; the flavour is rounder, faintly sweet, more honey than hay.

The pyramids are biodegradable, made from cornstarch — plastic-free.

Brew with freshly boiled water for four to five minutes. Excellent in the hour before bed, on its own or with a small spoonful of honey. Long associated with relaxation, sleep and digestive ease.
