Flavour and Character
The moment this infusion brews, the aroma alone is worth the wait, a sweet, lemony fragrance that fills the room with warmth and freshness. In the cup, lemongrass delivers a clean, bright citrus character with a delicate grassy sweetness and a lingering, refreshing finish. The infusion is a beautiful pale gold. There is no astringency, no bitterness, just an honest, uplifting cup that invites you to slow down and breathe. A drizzle of honey deepens the natural sweetness; a few slices of fresh ginger add a warming, spicy edge that transforms the experience entirely.
Origin and Quality
Our lemongrass is carefully sourced from quality producers in Thailand, where the warm, humid growing conditions are ideal for producing aromatic lemongrass with outstanding flavour. The stalks are cut and dried to preserve their natural essential oils and fragrance, ensuring every cup brews with the bright, sweet citrus character lemongrass is loved for worldwide. Only the finest grade cut leaf makes it into our hand-packed pouches.
Brewing Guide
Loose Leaf: Pre-heat a cup or teapot. Use 1 tsp per cup, or 1 rounded tsp per person for a teapot. Pour freshly boiled water over the lemongrass and infuse for 7 - 10 minutes. Remove the leaves and enjoy. Adjust steeping time to taste, longer for a deeper, more intense brew.
