Gourmet Sauvage herbal teas and teas are composed exclusively of indigenous plants harvested from forests and fields. Our blends are made from whole, uncrushed plants, carefully designed to create a balance of flavors while highlighting the properties of each species.
Wild Terroir Herbal Teas: Taste the Forest One Cup at a Time
Sipped as a hot or cold infusion with a splash of lemon, wild herbal teas will bring a touch of the forest into your daily life.
Gathering Wild Plants for Infusion
The plants used in our wild herbal teas are harvested precisely when they are at their most beautiful and freshest.
Rose, bee balm, and valerian flowers are always picked after the dew and before it gets too hot, allowing their fragrances to emerge. Sweet gale and chaga also require harvesting at a specific time using precise techniques. Only young raspberry leaves are selected, while conifer gathering can even extend into winter.
This intimate knowledge of plants, the forest, and the rhythm of the seasons allows us to practice responsible and sustainable harvesting. The plants are then air-dried in the dark in custom facilities to ensure a final product of high quality.
