Description:

A tender blend of raspberry leaf, rose petals, lemon balm & fennel seed traditionally used to soothe discomfort, lift mood & ease bloating.

Taste Profile

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

Aroma

Soft, green, and gently floral. Lemon balm’s fresh lemon herb note appears first, clean and calming rather than sharp. Rose petals add a light, airy floral sweetness, while raspberry leaf contributes a subtle dried leaf depth. Fennel is barely perceptible on the nose, it's sweet and warm, but restrained.

First Sip

Smooth and immediately comforting. The opening is green and mildly citrusy, led by lemon balm. Raspberry leaf follows quickly, adding a tea like, grounding character. The first sip feels gentle, rounded, and reassuring rather than bright or acidic.

Mid Palate

The blend becomes more cohesive and layered:

Raspberry leaf provides structure, slightly tannic but soft, anchoring the cup.

Rose petals bloom gently, adding a delicate floral sweetness without perfume.

Fennel seed introduces a faint, natural sweetness, reminiscent of soft licorice or anise, smoothing the herbal edges. The flavors feel harmonized, with no single note dominating.

Aromatic Layer

A quiet, elegant aromatic presence. Rose sits in the upper register as a light floral veil, while lemon balm contributes a fresh herbal lift. Aromatics remain subtle and integrated, never overt or heady.

Body

Medium light to medium body. The mouthfeel is smooth and slightly rounded, with raspberry leaf giving a gentle firmness and fennel lending softness. It feels nourishing but not heavy.

Sweetness

Low to moderate natural sweetness. Fennel and rose provide most of the perceived sweetness, supported by lemon balm’s gentle brightness. The sweetness is soft and natural, never sugary.

Bitterness

Very low. Raspberry leaf adds mild dryness rather than bitterness. Lemon balm remains clean and green, with no sharp edges even at longer steeps.

Finish

Clean, softly floral, and lingering. Rose and fennel leave a gentle, comforting aftertaste, while lemon balm fades with a light herbal freshness. The finish feels calm, rounded, and settled.

Overall Impression

A soft, harmonizing, and quietly restorative herbal infusion. Green herbal structure meets gentle floral sweetness and subtle warmth, creating a balanced and soothing flavor profile.
