Feels Like: open pastures in the golden hour
Dusk is the finest time to witness the simple majesty of wheat fields dancing like ocean waves. The aroma of this tea is bright and buttery. In the first sip, you encounter the heady sweetness of warm wheat and hay cooling in the evening air. Then, tart rhubarb gives way to a blend of sweet floral and herbal notes. At the base is a rich custard flavor that lingers on the tongue. As the summer sun meets the horizon, it transforms open pastures into a fiery haze of pink, peach and red as far as the eye can see.

Herbal blends (tisanes) contain no Camellia sinensis, so most are caffeine-free. Always use freshly boiled water for herbal and fruit infusions — the UK Food Standards Agency advises it for food safety. Follow the producer's directions where they differ, and check with a doctor about herbs during pregnancy or with medications.
