Tea Farm

All our herbs come from world-leading tea growing regions and from small, regional tea farms, some of which have a long family tradition. The farms are characterized by remote natural locations and are well protected from drifts and pollution from nearby cities. Our partner farms in Austria, Germany, France, Greece and Italy are among the pioneers of sustainable agriculture. The Austrian herbs thrive on small mountain herb farms located in the Austrian foothills of the Alps, their native environment.

The Sunrouge tea leaves are sourced directly from their native region in Japan, where ideal climatic conditions contribute to the optimal formation of effective phytochemicals.

Contents

Herbal infusion of dandelion and dandelion root, caraway, peppermint, raspberry leaves, Sunrouge green tea, dictamos, yarrow, milk thistle, wormwood, gentian root and artichoke.

Nettle

Although stinging nettle was for a long time an overlooked medicinal herb, it is increasingly enjoying scientific interest.

Caraway

Caraway (Carum carvi) belongs to the Apiaceae family and originates from the Mediterranean region, the Middle East and North Africa. Wild caraway plants can also be found in Germany. The fruits of the plant in particular are used in many international cuisines. In traditional European herbalism, caraway fruits are used for tea.

Peppermint

Peppermint has been used for ages in cultures around the world for purification rituals, as incense, and in the form of calming tea. To help improve concentration, students in ancient times wore a crown of twisted mint and relied on the sweet, clear scent for its stimulating effects.

Raspberry Leaves

The raspberry bush (Rubus idaeus) is mainly known for its tasty fruits, raspberries. However, its leaves are also used in traditional herbalism for the preparation of tea. Archaeological findings show that both the fruits and leaves of the plant were used as early as the Stone Age. Herbalist priests and monks of the Middle Ages often cultivated the bushes in their monastery gardens.

Sunrouge Green Tea

Sunrouge is a special cross of C. taliensis and C. sinensis strains. Sunrouge green has a high proportion of longer matured leaves of later harvests, which contain a specific composition of phytochemicals.

Dictamos

Dictamos (Origanum dictamnus) is a plant native to Crete. It belongs to the Lamiaceae family and grows wild mainly on limestone walls and rocks in the mountainous Dikti region. Dictamos was highly sought after in ancient times and was considered a true miracle herb by Greek herbalists. Today it is used both as a spice and in tea.

Yarrow

Yarrow is found throughout Europe and northern Asia and has a long tradition in herbalism. According to Greek mythology, the soldier Achilles also used yarrow, and it is to this legend that yarrow owes its Latin name Achillea millefolium.

Milk Thistle

Milk thistle, also known as Marian thistle, Mary thistle and Scotch thistle, belongs to the Asteraceae family, and owes its name to the white speckling of its leaves.

Wormwood

Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) is a herbaceous plant belonging to the Asteraceae family. In ancient times, it was used to ward off demons and was put in infants' beds to protect them from goblins and spirits. Historically, the famous herbalist Priest Kneipp knew about its power. Today, wormwood forms the basis of various spirits such as absinthe.

Gentian Root

When thinking of gentian (Gentianceae), most people think of the blue-flowered gentian. Internally however, it is the root of the yellow gentian that is used. Gentian is one of the most bitter native plants of all. Its bitter value is at least 10,000, which is extremely bitter.

Artichoke

Artichokes (Cynara) contains many phytochemicals. The artichoke was first described by herbalists in Persian records as early as about 1,000 years ago and has also been considered an important remedy in Western herbalism for about 100 years.

Cultivation & Processing

All ingredients are grown using natural methods and without the use of pesticides and synthetic fertilisers.

Austrian Herbs

The Austrian herbs are grown at an elevation of around 500-900m on rolling hills, far from factories and busy traffic. The herbs have been thriving here under traditional cultivation methods since the 13th century. The high-quality plants grow naturally in small fields, completely without the use of chemicals.

Because of the excellent climatic conditions in the region, irrigation is not necessary. The plants are harvested partly by hand and partly with specialised machines. Within 1-2 hours after harvesting, the herbs are gently dried in a tray dryer at a maximum temperature of 40°C, for about 12-24 hours. After that, they are crushed and packaged. No fumigation or other questionable processes are used.

Climatically, Austria offers optimal growing conditions for the plants. The mild summers and cool nights as well as the harsh winters, high humidity and rainfall throughout the year all contribute to the quality of the plants. The careful selection of the plants, the favourable location on granite subsoil, the gentle processing methods and strict quality guidelines also enhance the quality of the plants. As a result, the plants achieve a high concentration of important ingredients and flavours, including essential oils and secondary phytochemicals.

Italian Herbs

Our partner farms in Tuscany have made history as pioneers of dynamic and sustainable farming in Italy. The farms uniquely combine conventional fields with wooded areas and natural meadows for the wild growth of naturally occurring herbs. The unique cultivation practices and careful and gentle processing methods can in many cases only be followed by hand. Many years of knowledge about the requirements of the plants and optimal harvesting times for active ingredient content result in particularly potent herbs with strong aromas.

Japanese Herbs

Our Sunrouge tea leaves are 100% sourced from sunny Tokunoshima. The small, remote Pacific island is located just north of Okinawa in the Amami Archipelago, one of the southernmost regions of Japan. The volcanic island belongs in large parts to the beautiful Amami Guntō Quasi-National Park, which is characterised by its rich ecosystem of fauna and flora.
