Assam Black Tea
Assam black is a tea with body, a fine texture, bright colour, a malted flavour and a natural sweetness. It owes its name to the region of India where it’s produced. It’s mildly stimulating, restoring alertness and works against drowsiness. The leaves contain phenolic compounds which give it antioxidant properties and promote cardiovascular health.

Eucalyptus
Facilitates breathing and elimination of mucous as well as relieving dry cough. Its often used to fight the symptoms of respiratory illnesses. Its primary properties are anti-cough, expectorant, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory.

Ginger Root
Its often said that it’s the root of the plant of the same name when in reality its an underground rhizome. Highly appreciated for its aroma, strong and spicy taste. Ginger infusions stimulate gastric juices, improving nutrient absorption and aiding weight loss. It’s attributed many properties, in particular analgesic, antihistamine, digestive and sudorific.

Lemon Peel
With the classic citrus taste that characterizes the lemon, extremely refreshing due to its light acidity, with great health benefits, as it aids the body in eliminating toxins, raises its defences and fortifies the immune system.
