An Ancient Floral Tea

The ancient woodlands of Europe are home to the linden tree, the source of this herbal tea. Linden trees are known for being impressively tall, stretching on average to heights between 60-80 feet, with some of the tallest growing over 100 feet. They are also incredibly long-lived, able to survive naturally for centuries. Their pollen is used to make a very high quality honey, and the wood of a linden tree is favorably soft and supple. In parts of Europe, the linden tree is known as a "lime tree", a name that can be misleading, as these trees do not produce limes, and are not a relative of citrus plants. However, the leaves and flowers that produce this tea do possess a subtle, somewhat lemony flavor. Herbal tea enthusiasts can enjoy the light, aromatic nature of this tea, which works well served pure or mixed with sugar or honey for a sweeter brew.

Linden tea also provides a natural source of vitamins, minerals, flavonoids and antioxidants. Getting a decent intake of flavonoids is important, and drinking linden flower tea can be a convenient way to supply yourself with nutrients and antioxidants. Linden tea from Buddha Teas is packaged in bleach-free tea bags and does not contain artificial flavorings, additives, or preservatives.
