Did you know?
Lavender has been used for thousands of years, from ancient Roman baths to medieval herbal gardens. Its name comes from the Latin lavare, meaning “to wash,” reflecting its historic role in purification and relaxation rituals.
Brewing is more than preparation — it’s a pause. Notice the aroma, the warmth of the cup, and the first sip. Each blend is an invitation to slow down and be present.
