An herbal tea, also known as a tisane, does not come from the Camellia sinensis (tea) plant like white, green, and black tea do. Each herbal selection, whether it is mint or chamomile or ginger, comes from its own unique plant. Many of these plants have been steeped in hot water to be enjoyed as a warm beverage for hundreds of years. Each of these unique herbs has its own flavor profile and benefits. Upton Tea selects the finest loose leaf herbal tea to ensure you get to appreciate the full flavor profile of each herb in every cup.
With the exception of Yerba Mate tea varieties, herbal tea does not contain any caffeine. This makes tisanes the ideal choice for those who wish to limit their caffeine intake or those who want a soothing cup of tea in the evening. We offer conventional and organic herbal loose leaf tea.
