The origins of our Whole Chamomile Blossoms herbal tea

With its soft golden blooms and full, floral aroma, our loose-leaf Whole Chamomile Blossoms herbal tea will leave you steeped in tranquillity. Awarded two stars at the Great Taste Awards, this fragrant, bright yellow infusion owes its heavenly flavour to the quality of its flowers, which are grown on fertile plains all over the world, as they have been for thousands of years. (Chamomile was one of the first tisanes recorded, in an Ancient Egyptian papyrus dated to 1550 BC. )

Completely caffeine-free, this popular herbal tea isn't known as 'calming chamomile' for nothing. A delightfully relaxing drink at any time of day, it's best enjoyed in the evening – particularly after a meal. Add a dash of honey, or even a grating of ginger for an extra warming kick, if you like, and ease into its soothing embrace.

Harvested in spring, only the finest chamomile flowers are selected for this luxury tea, which has a delicious mellow sweetness and characteristic hints of apple. (Chamomile's name is rooted in the ancient Greek word meaning 'ground apple'. ) The plant itself is a member of the daisy family and the whole flowers are picked after they bloom, then dried, during which the white petals usually drop away, leaving the familiar fuzzy yellow head seen in high-quality chamomile tisanes.

What are the health benefits of Chamomile?

As well as a cup of chamomile tea being a joy to drink, this beverage has been associated with a range of health benefits for millennia including those related to heart health, blood pressure and the immune system. The ancient Greeks, Romans and Egyptians used the crushed leaves as a salve for skin conditions and drank it to help aid digestion and soothe upset stomachs. Recent studies have helped shore up that historic knowledge, showing that chamomile has antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory properties useful in the treatment of menstrual cramps, gastrointestinal and respiratory tract issues. Chamomile has also been shown to have antimicrobial properties and to be effective in wound healing, and it contains high levels of apigenin, a plant compound known to have cancer-fighting properties. Most famously, of course, chamomile is widely used to help treat stress and anxiety, which is why we recommend a warm cup just before you hit the hay!

Alternatives to Chamomile tea

If you enjoy Chamomile for its health benefits, also try our Lemongrass and Ginger and our Turmeric Spice, both caffeine-free herbal infusions simply bursting with goodness. If you want a brew to unwind with in the evening, our subtly sweet caffeine-free Organic Vanilla Rooibos is a wonderful option. Looking for a gift? A caddy of simple but beautifully fragrant Whole Rose Buds makes an elegant package to send to a loved one.

For more information about calming teas, see our Best Teas for Anxiety blog.

Seeing the golden flowers of our chamomile infusion steeping away is relaxing in itself. Make sure you give this beautiful herbal tea a chance to shine by serving it in high-quality glassware such as our Infuser Mug for loose-leaf tea cups or luxury teapots.

Region

Karlovac, Croatia

Karlovac, often celebrated as Croatia's "crown" region due to its central location and rich floral biodiversity, is particularly famous for its high-quality chamomile. The area's temperate climate, characterised by cold winters and warm summers, provides the perfect conditions for cultivating chamomile. This climate allows the chamomile flowers to develop a high concentration of essential oils, enhancing their aromatic and flavour profiles and making the chamomile exceptionally soothing and flavourful.

The fertile soils of the region further contribute to the quality of the chamomile, enriching its already robust characteristics. Harvesting occurs in early summer when the flowers are in full bloom, just before the onset of midsummer's peak temperatures. This careful timing is crucial as it helps preserve the flowers’ delicate volatile compounds, which are key to the calming effects and distinctive apple-like taste of the chamomile. This meticulous attention to growth and harvesting conditions ensures that the chamomile from Karlovac remains among the most sought-after for its superior taste and therapeutic benefits.
