Story Behind The Blend
SILENT FOREST began with a gift.
A dear friend went home to his birch forest and left behind a piece of that landscape. The tea became a way of saying thank you, not simply for the bark, but for the memories, landscapes and experiences held between two people.
Every botanical carries part of the story.
Calendula recalls forest clearings illuminated by sun. Bay carries the happiness of long walks and the generosity of giving. Juniper evokes the clean clarity of northern forests.
Rosehip remembers rose petals eaten together among the dunes. Rosemary holds the memory of friendship and connection. Icelandic moss reflects a musician whose beats became like a heartbeat when sleeping in other birch forests.
Malva represents finding water and making tea in the wild. Nettle carries the minerals and nourishment needed for future adventures. Pink pepper is a reminder that love is infinite.
And butterfly pea brings the blue of open skies above green meadows, a landscape of friendship held in a cup.
SILENT FOREST is therefore less a recipe than a map of shared memory.
