Chamomile is one of the oldest herbal teas in the world. Sampson’s blend uses whole, hand-sized flower heads rather than the broken petals you’ll often find in supermarket bags — it’s the difference between a brew that tastes like fresh meadow honey and one that tastes like dust. Pour hot water over the flowers and the cup turns pale gold, with a soft apple-pastry aroma that fills the kitchen. Naturally caffeine-free, traditionally drunk in the evening, gentle enough for any time of day. The flavour is delicate — give it a full five minutes to bloom and you’ll find a soft apple sweetness underneath the floral top notes. No tea bag aftertaste, no bitterness if you forget the timer. 🌼 Whole Flowers Hand-sized flower heads, not broken petals or dust 🌙 Evening Calm Traditionally enjoyed at the close of the day ✨ One Ingredient Pure chamomile — nothing added, nothing missing ✨ **The Sampson Promise** We only put ingredients in our products that we would use on our own family. Every ingredient has a purpose. If it doesn’t need to be there, it isn’t. Type Herbal Infusion Caffeine None Origin Egypt Format Whole Flower Steep Time 5–7 min Servings ~25 cups (50g) ## Tasting Notes 🌼 Apple-Honey Aroma The smell of warm orchard fruit and meadow honey. Gentle, slightly powdery, never sharp — the unmistakable scent of whole chamomile flowers steeping. 🍯 Soft Sweetness Body Light-bodied and naturally sweet — no sugar required. The brew is the colour of pale honey and tastes like the calm, golden version of one. ✨ Clean Finish Aftertaste Smooth, slightly floral, no bitterness even after a long steep. The cup ends quietly — no aftertaste, no dryness. ## How to Brew 01 Measure One heaped teaspoon (about 2g of whole flowers) per 8oz cup. Chamomile flowers are light — don’t under-fill the spoon. 02 Heat the Water Bring water to a full boil — 100°C / 212°F. Herbal infusions need higher heat than tea leaves to fully release their flavour. 03 Steep 5–7 Minutes Cover the cup if you can — chamomile’s aromatic compounds are volatile and a lid keeps them in the brew. Five minutes for a softer cup, seven for a fuller one. Water 100°C Time 5–7 min Per Cup 1 tsp Add a thin slice of fresh ginger or a teaspoon of honey for the cosier version. Equally good iced — cold-brew the flowers in the fridge overnight for a clear, gently sweet infusion. ## About the Tea 🌼 Egyptian Chamomile The Flower Whole flower heads grown along the Nile valley, where the climate produces a higher concentration of the aromatic oils that give chamomile its distinct apple-honey character. Picked, dried, sieved for stem and dust. ✨ Nothing Else The Purity One ingredient. No flavours, no fillers, no « blend of botanicals » padding the bag. Single-origin chamomile is more expensive to buy and worth every cent of the difference. 🌿 Whole-Flower Grade The Cut You can see the difference: golden centres, intact petals, almost no broken pieces in the tin. Whole flowers extract more slowly and more cleanly — less bitterness, more flavour. In the tin Whole chamomile flowers. Origin & Sourcing Single-origin chamomile from Egypt — the source most prized for its concentrated apple-honey aroma. Hand-sieved into the whole-flower grade, then blended in small batches for the Sampson shelf. Caffeine-free, naturally gluten-free, nothing added. ## Images - https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0571/5319/2067/files/chamomile-herbal-tea-3991998.jpg?v=1780653430 - https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0571/5319/2067/files/chamomile-herbal-tea-6284513.jpg?v=1780653431
