These “teas” come from plants other than the tea plant, Camellia Sinensis – so strictly speaking they are not teas but tisanes – but who cares?

Herbal preparations have been used since the dawn of civilisation, to treat various ailments, to relax, to revive.
In both West and East they have a long and distinguished history – and if anything they are more popular today than ever.
