Crisp Days, Warm Cups
Autumn herbal teas for cosy mornings and quiet afternoons
When the air turns cooler and the evenings draw in, a warming cup feels like a small act of kindness to yourself. This collection brings together caffeine-free herbal blends suited to the season: roots, spices, flowers and fruits that taste right when there's a nip in the air. Every tea here is loose leaf, hand-packed in Yorkshire, and ready to steep.
You'll find gentle florals like Organic Hibiscus Tea alongside deeper, earthier notes in Liquorice Root Tea and Liquorice & Peppermint Tea. Kadha Tonic offers warming spice, while Bramble brings hedgerow sweetness. Glow and Sweet Dreams round out the range with their own distinct characters. All are naturally caffeine-free, so they suit any hour.
These teas are chosen for flavour and tradition, not as treatments or remedies. If you're after something pleasant to sip while the leaves fall, or a brew to share with a friend on a rainy afternoon, this is a good place to start browsing.
How to choose
By time of day
Any of these work morning to night since they're all caffeine-free. Lighter blends like Organic Hibiscus Tea suit daytime sipping, while richer options such as Liquorice Root Tea feel right after supper.
By flavour family
Prefer something fruity? Bramble or Organic Hibiscus Tea. After spice? Kadha Tonic brings warmth. For natural sweetness without sugar, Liquorice Root Tea or Liquorice & Peppermint Tea deliver.
By milk or black
Most herbal infusions here taste best without milk. If you like a splash, Liquorice Root Tea handles it well. The fruit-forward blends are best taken black to let their brightness come through.

Good questions
Things people ask us in the shop
What makes a good autumn tea?
Look for blends with warming spices, earthy roots or ripe fruit notes. Caffeine-free herbals are popular because they suit any time of day without keeping you awake. This collection focuses on those flavours.
Are these teas caffeine-free?
Yes. Every blend in this collection is a herbal infusion made from ingredients other than the Camellia sinensis plant, so they contain no caffeine at all.
How do I brew loose leaf herbal tea?
Use freshly boiled water and steep for three to six minutes, adjusting to taste. A teaspoon per cup is a good guide. Herbal teas are forgiving, so a longer steep rarely turns bitter.
Can I drink herbal tea with milk?
Some work well with a splash, particularly those with liquorice or spice. Fruity blends like hibiscus or bramble are better black, as milk can dull their sharpness.
How should I store loose leaf tea?
Keep it in an airtight container away from light, heat and strong smells. A cool cupboard is ideal.
