About This Tea

Lemongrass Tea is a distinguished tea originating from Various, Thailand, where the unique combination of soil, climate, and elevation creates ideal conditions for producing this remarkable variety. The leaves are carefully dried and prepared from botanical ingredients rather than the Camellia sinensis tea plant, resulting in a tea that has captivated drinkers for generations with its distinctive character and refined qualities. For centuries, tea artisans in this region have perfected the techniques needed to bring out the best in each leaf, passing down knowledge from master to apprentice through countless generations.

A well-prepared cup of Lemongrass Tea is a multisensory experience. The fragrance immediately conveys bright citrus, lemony with herbal freshness, while the palate encounters citrusy, refreshing with lemony zing. Experienced tea drinkers often note how the flavor evolves as the tea cools, revealing new dimensions of taste with each sip. In terms of stimulation, Lemongrass Tea is completely caffeine-free, making it an excellent choice for evening enjoyment or for those avoiding stimulants entirely.

This tea comes from a region with a rich heritage of tea production and a deep appreciation for quality beverages.

To brew Lemongrass Tea properly, water should be heated to 95°C to 100°C and the leaves steeped for 5 to 7 minutes. Using approximately 1.5g of tea per 100ml of water produces optimal results. The tea can be re-steeped up to 1 times, with each infusion offering a slightly different expression of the leaf's character. Many experienced drinkers find that the second or third infusion reveals the tea's true depth.

In the modern tea landscape, Lemongrass Tea occupies a special position. As consumers worldwide develop increasingly sophisticated palates, this tea has found appreciation far beyond its traditional home in Thailand. Specialty tea shops, online retailers, and dedicated tea communities have made it more accessible than ever, while maintaining respect for the traditional craftsmanship that defines its production. For those discovering Lemongrass Tea for the first time, it offers a gateway to understanding the incredible diversity and depth that the world of tea has to offer.
