Chamomile has been the evening cup of Western herbalism for centuries, with records of use tracing back to ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The dried flower heads contain volatile oils, primarily bisabolol and chamazulene, which give the tea its characteristic sweetness and the mild sedative properties that traditional herbalism credits for calming the nervous system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEgypt grows the majority of the world's chamomile supply. The Nile Delta soil and climate produce flowers with higher essential oil content than flowers grown elsewhere, which explains why Egyptian chamomile tastes sweeter and more aromatic. Whole flowers preserve those oils better than the crushed dust found in grocery store tea bags. You can see the difference in the bag, and you taste it in the cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteep covered. The volatile oils evaporate with steam. A saucer over the cup traps the oils and keeps the apple-honey aroma in the water where it belongs. Five to six minutes. No milk, no sugar needed. The flower is naturally sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yerba Buena Tea Co.","offers":[{"title":"Tea Tin","offer_id":47256249663810,"sku":"SQ5394509","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tea Refill","offer_id":47256249696578,"sku":"SQ5394510","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0806\/0862\/4962\/files\/chamomile-loose-leaf-tea-ybtco.webp?v=1779851323","url":"https:\/\/ybtco.mom\/products\/chamomile","provider":"Yerba Buena Tea Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
