Good questions

Things people ask us in the shop

What does mugwort tea taste like?

Aromatic, earthy and full of botanical character, Mugwort Tea offers a richly herbal cup with sage-like depth and a lingering finish. Long associated with traditional evening rituals, mugwort is a distinctive choice for a quiet moment with a journal or a book. Enjoy its warming aroma and naturally caffeine-free character, with a little honey if you prefer a softer finish.

Is mugwort tea caffeine-free?

This herbal infusion is naturally caffeine-free.

Why is mugwort called lucid dream tea?

The name comes from mugwort's long folk history in European dreamwork and evening rituals. It is cultural tradition rather than any guaranteed effect.

How should I store it?

Keep the pouch sealed and store somewhere cool, dry and away from sunlight or strong-smelling foods. It will stay fresh for many months.

Is there any ingredient guidance to know?

Do not use during pregnancy. Mugwort can cause allergic reactions, especially in people sensitive to related plants. See the NIH guidance linked under Full product details.
