Hearthfire Herbal Tea

Get cosy next to a glowing hearth.

Hearthfire is a herbal tea blend created to ground the spirit and centre the mind. Hand-blended in West Cork, Ireland, this infusion weaves a bold Earl Grey base with bright botanicals and aromatic spices to create a physical anchor and add cosiness to your daily rituals. It's a tribute to the comforting rhythms of home — reminding you of fireside chats, flickering candlelight, and the sacredness of a quiet moment.

Botanical Allies & Their Roles:

• Earl Grey Black Tea: A bold, bergamot-infused base that provides gentle clarity and focus. This delicious tea offers structured energy to centre your thoughts amidst a busy day.
• Lemon Verbena: A bright, lemony botanical that soothes the nervous system. It balances the energising qualities of the black tea.
• Cinnamon, Cardamom & Clove: A warming trio for comfort and digestive support. These spices offer a sense of internal heat and protective energy, grounding the body in the present moment.
• Orange Peels: A bittersweet citrus that naturally uplifts the mood and spirit, bringing a sense of brightness to the deeper, spicier notes of the blend.
  

The Ritual (How to Brew):

Follow this method to extract the bold flavours and aromatic oils from this spiced infusion:

• Measure: Add 1 tablespoon per cup of loose-leaf herbal tea to your pot.
• Heat: Pour freshly boiled water (100°C) over the herbs.
• The Trap: Cover your cup. This keeps the aromatic bergamot and spice oils trapped in the water, ensuring the fragrance is as potent as the flavor.
• The Wait: Steep for 5–7 minutes. Use this time to light a candle, sit by a window, or simply watch the steam rise as you settle into your space.
• Enjoy: Best enjoyed warm, perhaps with a dash of milk or a drizzle of honey to enhance the warming spices.
