Chamomile tea (Matricaria chamomilla) is one of the world's most loved herbal teas, and for good reason. These certified organic whole chamomile flowers produce a golden, honey-sweet infusion with a gentle apple-like aroma. Traditionally used for centuries to promote relaxation and support restful sleep, chamomile is the classic evening tea. It is also traditionally valued for soothing digestive comfort and has a long history of safe, gentle use for all ages.
Key Benefits
- Calming and relaxing: Traditionally used to help ease mild nervous tension and promote a sense of calm. One of the most widely used relaxation herbs worldwide.
- Sleep support: Traditionally used as a bedtime tea to support restful, undisturbed chamomile sleep. Contains apigenin, a flavonoid that has been studied for its calming properties.
- Digestive comfort: Traditionally used to ease occasional stomach discomfort, bloating, and mild digestive upset. Gentle enough for regular use.
- Certified organic: Whole dried chamomile flowers grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers.
- Versatile: Use as a tea, in baking, as a hair rinse, in bath soaks, or in home brewing. The flowers also make a beautiful natural garnish.
Chamomile tea: Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried chamomile flowers to a cup of boiling water. Cover and steep for 5 to 10 minutes. Strain and enjoy. Covering the cup while steeping helps retain the beneficial volatile oils. Sweeten with honey if desired.
Blending: A classic pairing with Lavender for a deeply calming bedtime blend. Also lovely with Lemon Balm for a bright, uplifting daytime tea. For digestive comfort, try blending with Peppermint.
Other uses: Add a strong chamomile infusion to bath water for a relaxing soak. Use as a final hair rinse to naturally brighten blonde hair. The flowers can also be used in home brewing to add a subtle floral note to meads and light ales.

The name "chamomile" comes from the Greek "khamaimelon," meaning "earth apple," a reference to the apple-like scent of the fresh flowers. In many traditions, chamomile was known as the "plant's physician" because it was believed to improve the health of plants growing near it.
Chamomile is generally considered safe for dogs in small amounts and is sometimes used in calming pet products. However, it is not recommended for cats. As with all herbs, introduce gradually.
Those with allergies to plants in the daisy family (Asteraceae) should use with caution. May interact with blood-thinning medications. This information is not a substitute for medical advice. Consult a healthcare provider before use, especially if pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medication.
