Since 1974 Created by Herbalists Naturally Caffeine Free Herbal Tea Herbal Supplement Non GMO Project Verified USDA Certified by the California Certified Farmers (CCOF) Kosher Certified B Corporation Melissa Officinalis Native to Southern Europe, some of our favorite lemon balm comes from a farming cooperative in and around the German Rhine Valley. Run by a woman whose parents were herb farmers, the cooperative was established in 1987. Not only are these the kind of people we want to work with, we think they grow simply the best lemon balm there is. You don't have to take our word for it, though. Subtle and mild, its greatness is evident in it perfectly balanced pleasantness and its soothing effects on your system. We've Got the Right Stuff We raise the bar. The quality standard of the herbs we use is hard to pronounce, difficult to meet, and it's what makes us different, better. We're not ashamed to say it. Pharmacopoeial: it's the only quality standard our herbalists can rely on when blending teas for your health and wellness. Personality Your backyard sweetheart, pleasant and friendly. Herbal Power Gentle and mildly relaxing, relieves tension and relieves occasional indigestion. Reason to Love Lemon balm is just one of those amiable, easy-to-love plants. A member of the mint family, with broad leaves and a pleasing lemony scent, lemon balm has a genial nature that can best be described as kind. It's no wonder that people throughout Europa have been cultivating and using it for thousands of years both to support digestion and to calm and jangled nervous system. Named Melissa from the Greek word for "honey" because bees are wildly attracted to it, we can't think of a nicer, more pleasing herbal tea. Taste Pleasantly mild herbal taste, with subtle citrus notes.
