Blood Moon Comfort Herbal Tea

Description:

A crimson spiced cup of raspberry leaf, nettle, ginger & cinnamon used in tradition to support cycles, warm the womb & ease heaviness.

Taste Profile

Below is a pure sensory taste profile, assuming hot, unsweetened, and carefully brewed to avoid over extraction.

Aroma

Warm, grounded, and softly spiced. Cinnamon rises first, gentle and rounded rather than sharp. Beneath it sits fresh green herbaceousness from raspberry leaf and nettle, with ginger contributing a faint, warming zing in the background.

First Sip

Smooth and reassuring. The opening is green and earthy, led by raspberry leaf’s mild, tea like character. Almost immediately, soft cinnamon warmth follows, bringing comfort without heat. Ginger appears lightly with more warmth than spice.

Mid Palate

The blend deepens and becomes more structured:

Raspberry leaf provides a steady, tannin like backbone, similar to a mild black tea without bitterness.

Nettle adds vegetal depth, slightly mineral and green.

Ginger contributes a gentle internal warmth, while cinnamon rounds the center with soft sweetness. The flavors feel cohesive and grounding rather than bright or sharp.

Aromatic Layer

Low, warm aromatics dominate. Cinnamon and ginger sit in the mid to low aromatic range, giving a comforting, kitchen spice presence rather than an uplifting perfume. Herbal notes remain earthy and restrained.

Body

Medium body. Fuller and more substantial than most calming herbals. Raspberry leaf and nettle give the infusion a structured, almost brothy mouthfeel, creating a sense of nourishment and steadiness.

Sweetness

Low to moderate natural sweetness. Cinnamon adds a perceived sweetness, supported by ginger’s warmth. There is no sugary note, sweetness feels natural and grounding rather than bright.

Bitterness

Low. Raspberry leaf contributes a mild dryness rather than true bitterness. Nettle can add a faint vegetal edge if over steeped, but overall the cup remains smooth and controlled.

Finish

Warm, dry, and lingering. Cinnamon and ginger fade slowly, leaving behind a soft herbal earthiness and gentle warmth in the throat. The finish feels steady and reassuring rather than stimulating.

Overall Impression

A grounded, warming, and deeply comforting herbal infusion. Flavor forward without being aggressive, structured without heaviness. Earthy green herbs form the base, while ginger and cinnamon provide calm, enveloping warmth.
