naturally air dried
Once it’s been harvested, sage is collected in bunches and left to air dry, locking in its fragrant flavour naturally

carefully ground
It’s then simply ground to release its natural flavour and bagged, ready to drop into a cup of hot water.

how to drink your sage tea
Sage tea is delicious on its own, steeped for between three and six minutes to really release its rich, minty flavours. Or, you could try it chilled with ice and a slice of lemon on a hot day for a delicious, refreshing drink. Find the taste a bit overpowering at first? You can add a dash of lemon juice and honey to your tea for a soothing bedtime brew.
what will it taste like?
Sage has quite a distinctive taste with an earthy, lemony, almost menthol-like flavour. It’s part of the mint family, so is a great alternative if you already love mint tea.
