Description

The Blend & Sourcing

This blend is a harmony of foraged wild herbs and farm-grown botanicals:

• Chamomile & Rosemary: Cultivated in our Sunderkhal fields; chamomile provides the sedative base, while rosemary helps soothe tired muscles.
• Wild Nettle: Hand-foraged from the Kumaon forest edges, adding a rich mineral backbone to support overnight recovery.
• Lemon Grass & Licorice Root: Sourced from local Kumaoni growers to provide a citrusy lift and a lingering, natural sweetness without added sugar.
• Cinnamon Bark & Clove Buds: Sourced in their whole form to provide a warming, anti-inflammatory finish that aids digestion.

Traditional Use

In the high-altitude villages of the Himalayas, these ingredients are traditionally combined to:

• Promote Deep Sleep: Chamomile and lemongrass are the “quieting herbs,” used for generations to prepare the mind for rest.
• Soothe Inflammation: Nettle and cloves were historically used to calm joint stiffness and inflammation after a day of physical labor.
• Digestive Comfort: Cinnamon and licorice root are classic Ayurvedic aids for evening digestion, helping to prevent nighttime bloating or discomfort.

How to Use

• The Evening Ritual: Use 1 generous spoon of the blend per cup.
• Steeping: Use boiling water and steep for 7–10 minutes. Because this blend contains “hard” ingredients like cinnamon bark and clove buds, a longer steep time is required to extract their full benefit.
• Temperature: Best enjoyed warm. The natural sweetness of the licorice root means you likely won’t need any additional honey.
• Mindful Sip: Inhale the spicy, floral steam before your first sip to trigger the body’s natural relaxation response.
