The story

Kozani saffron meets the Greek herb garden

Ten sachets, each with real PDO Krokos Kozanis and whole Greek herbs β€” no flavouring, no dust.

Kozani Β· 40.3Β° N, 21.8Β° E
  1. Hands holding freshly picked saffron crocus flowers at harvest
    01Χωράφια

    The fields

    Kozani, northern Greece β€” the only saffron fields in the country, picked by hand for two weeks every October.

  2. Saffron crocus flower with its three red stigmas
    02ΞšΟΟŒΞΊΞΏΟ‚

    The saffron

    Each purple crocus gives three red threads. A few go into every sachet β€” enough to turn the cup gold.

  3. Dried Greek herbs laid out
    03Ξ’ΟŒΟ„Ξ±Ξ½Ξ±

    The herbs

    Whole Greek herbs and spices, cut coarse β€” not powdered β€” and folded into plant-based pyramid sachets.

  4. A cup of golden saffron tea

    The ritual

    One sachet, one cup, four minutes. Watch the water turn gold before the first sip.

Why it works

Saffron for mood, sage for the mind

Saffron is traditionally taken for mood and balance; Greek sage for memory, focus and colds; lemon verbena to soothe the throat and lift the spirit.*

It's the cup to reach for on a grey afternoon β€” golden, savory and clarifying.

How to brew

Two ways to brew. One second steep.

Whole leaves and flowers give up their flavour slowly, so the same spoonful brews twice.

Hot

  1. 1 sachet per 8 oz cup
  2. Water just off the boil (212Β°F)
  3. Steep 4–6 minutes β€” watch the cup turn gold
  4. Sip plain, or with a spoon of Greek honey

Cold brew

  1. 2 sachets per quart of cold water
  2. Steep 4–6 hours in the fridge
  3. Pour over ice
  4. Finish with mint, citrus or a drizzle of honey

Honey and lemon. As with all sage tea in Greece β€” a spoon of honey once it cools slightly, and a squeeze of lemon.

Saffron sachets vs. supermarket tea bags

Most herbal tea is what's left after the good leaves are sold. Ours is the good leaves.

Questions we get most

One sachet per 8 oz cup of just-boiled water, steeped 4–6 minutes. For iced tea, steep 2 sachets in a quart of cold water for 4–6 hours in the fridge.

Greek sage's savory mint and lemon verbena's bright lemon-blossom perfume over saffron's floral warmth β€” herbal, golden and grown-up. Made for honey and lemon.

No β€” it's naturally caffeine-free, so you can enjoy it any time, including the evening.

Yes. We never grind, crush or bag our herbs. You see whole leaves, flowers and roots in the bag β€” and that's why each spoonful steeps twice.

Keep it in a cool, dark, dry place, sealed tight and away from sunlight and moisture. Dried herbs don't expire β€” they just slowly lose a little aroma and potency over time, so they're best enjoyed within about two years for peak flavor.

Our teas are natural, certified-organic herbs with nothing added. But pregnancy and breastfeeding are times to be a little extra careful β€” some herbs aren't recommended then, and everyone's situation is different. We always recommend checking with your doctor or midwife before adding a new herbal tea to your routine.

From our U.S. fulfillment center within 1 business day. Standard delivery takes 2–4 business days and is free on orders over $79.

Unopened products can be returned within 14 days of delivery for a full refund β€” we send you the return label, free of charge. And if you're unsure, start with a sampler set.

From the founder

Yia mas β€” to your health.

I grew up on Ikaria, where herbs were not a wellness trend β€” they were what my grandmother picked on the hillside, dried on the roof and brewed every evening for whoever walked through the door.

Real leaves and roots, never the broken dust sealed into a bag.

Every plant we sell is harvested at peak potency, hand-cut, air-dried the traditional way and hand-packed. Nothing added, nothing taken away.
