Matricaria chamomilla · Dried Flower Heads · Gentle Floral Herbal Tea
Chamomile Flowers create a soft golden herbal infusion with a delicate floral aroma and a naturally gentle, subtly sweet character.
Known botanically as Matricaria chamomilla, these dried flower heads are instantly recognisable by their golden centres and pale petals. Chamomile has a long history as a familiar botanical infusion and has been enjoyed in herbal tea traditions around the world.
Naturally caffeine-free, Chamomile Flowers are beautiful enjoyed on their own or blended with complementary botanicals such as mint, lemon verbena, lavender and rose. They can also be used in botanical drinks, culinary recipes and simple everyday tea rituals.

Its light botanical character makes it approachable on its own while also pairing beautifully with other herbs and flowers.

How to Prepare Chamomile Tea
Add 1–2 teaspoons of dried Chamomile Flowers to a cup or teapot.
Pour over freshly boiled water, cover and steep for 5–10 minutes, depending on your preferred flavour and strength.
Strain and enjoy warm, or allow the infusion to cool before serving over ice.
Enjoy simply as it is, or add a little honey or fresh lemon if desired.
