Lemon Verbena Organic Herbal Tea - Handpicked Cedron Loose Leaf Tea - Luisa Verveine or Luiza Leaves - Cedron Herb Dried Lemon Verberna Tea Lemon Verbena Tea Leaves Lemon Tea Leaves

I added Lemon Verbena to my herb garden for the first time this year and absolutely fell in love with making Lemon Verbena tea!As we're moving into the winter season, I have brought my plant indoors and hoping to keep it going until spring but my consumption rate has quickly outpaced the volume I've been able to harvest from my own plant.This product is very good, the physical qualities of the leaves you get are that they are whole leaves, there is some amount of bare stems which I suppose is to be expected from a product that is no doubt mechanically processed to some extent, but you can tell it is very minimally processed really - this product arrived looking pretty much just like when I harvest and dry my own leaves.This plant has a lot of tough stems which are very difficult to entirely separate from the leafy parts and that is just part of the plant which I've come to accept in dealing with my home grown leaves. Since I use it primarily for tea anyway it really doesn't matter that there are stems in it, it's not like I'm going to be eating them.I did some extent of my own processing once I received this product, trying to remove the largest stems that I could and crush the leaves somewhat in my mortar and pestle.The scent of the leaves is wonderfully lemony, as you would expect.The leaves are not quite as "green" as home grown and harvested; but I guess that is to be expected in any commercially purchased herbs, they will never be as fresh as from your own garden.There were a few very brown leaves in the batch, which also happens with home grown, just pick them out.Brews a nice looking tea, and the taste I have to admit is a little milder than using more fresh herbs; but still has a nice lemony flavor that doesn't require any sweetener and has a mild astringent aftertaste.

It’s very good taste!!!

I first discovered this herbal tea in Paris at Fauchon. It's difficult to find it in the US so I was happy to find this blend on Amazon. Delicious!!!

This stuff is excellent. Dried leaves. I pack them in a metal pod that fits my Keurig unit and run the hot water through them to make a delicious citrusy brew. Add a little honey and I figure its got to be healthy. I've also used a tea bag in the cup and combine them both for a super healthy and delicious cup. And yes, you can run hot water through them up to three times. Give it a try, I think you love it.

Intake verbena to sleep and find it helpful in lowering my blood pressure

I prefer loose leaf tea. Like using leaves that bloom versus minute pieces that are not easy to strain. It is great hot or cold. Tea does not get bitter when retaining the leaves in the water to increase the strength.

Full leaves with great aroma. I searched for local sources and found none in Austin TX. The leaves are very light and hard to weigh so I just go by volume (what fits in the bottom of my one cup French press) and brew exactly as they suggest. More brewing seems to add bitterness.

Made mine as sun tea. Is very flavorful and enjoyed my batch I made. Looking forward to my next batch to sip On.
