Ivan Chai

Loose Leaf Tea - Fireweed/Rosebay Willowherb - Chamaenerion Angustifolium

30g

Ivan Chai is a traditional herbal tea made from the leaves of Rosebay Willowherb, also known as Fireweed. With a rich history of use across Russia and Northern Europe, this naturally caffeine-free infusion has been enjoyed for generations as a soothing everyday alternative to traditional black tea.

The leaves develop a wonderfully distinctive flavour when prepared for tea, producing a smooth, earthy and gently floral infusion with subtle natural sweetness. Its comforting character makes Ivan Chai particularly enjoyable on its own, while its lack of caffeine means it can be enjoyed throughout the day and into the evening.

Rosebay Willowherb naturally contains a variety of plant compounds, including polyphenols and flavonoids. In traditional herbal practice, the plant has been valued particularly for digestive and urinary wellbeing, as well as being enjoyed as a gentle, restorative herbal drink.

Our loose-leaf Ivan Chai is carefully prepared to preserve the natural character, aroma and depth of this beautiful wild plant. A little goes a long way, with the leaves producing a rich infusion that can be enjoyed either warm or chilled.
