Description
💜 Herbal☕ Caffeine-Free🌙 Evening Cup🌿 Whole Flower
The quiet evening cup — wild lavender flowers, gently floral, the colour of a Provençal afternoon.
Lavender is rare on a tea shelf — most ranges shy away from it because used heavily it tips into perfume. Sampson uses whole lavender flowers in a measured proportion: enough that the floral character defines the cup, not so much that it tastes like soap. The result is soft, slightly sweet, and unmistakably itself.
Naturally caffeine-free. Drinks well any time of day, but the cup makes its real case in the evening — the kind of tea that tells the room to slow down.

Tasting Notes
💜
Soft Lavender
Aroma
Floral and slightly sweet — closer to a Provençal field than to a soap shop. The aroma is the cup’s anchor: present, not overwhelming.
✨
Light Sweet Body
Body
Light-bodied, naturally sweet, no astringency. The cup is pale gold and tastes the way it looks — gentle, slow, quiet.
🌙
Slow Quiet Finish
Aftertaste
The lavender lingers softly at the end — no bitterness, no soap, no sharpness. The cup ends the way the day should.
How to Brew
01
Measure
One heaped teaspoon (about 2g) per 8oz cup. Lavender flowers are very light by volume — fill the spoon properly.
02
Heat the Water
Bring water to a full boil — 100°C / 212°F. Herbal infusions need high heat to release the floral oils properly.
03
Steep 5–7 Minutes
Cover the cup if you can — lavender’s aromatics are volatile. Five minutes for a softer cup, seven for fuller floral character. Don’t over-steep — that’s where soap-territory begins.

Time

Per Cup
1 heaped tsp
Pairs beautifully with a teaspoon of honey — lavender and honey are a centuries-old match. For a stronger evening version, brew a slightly heaped spoon and steep the full seven minutes covered.
About the Tea
💜
Lavender Flowers
The Heart
Whole, intact flower buds rather than crushed lavender — the difference between a soft floral cup and one that tastes like potpourri. The rest of the blend is built around them.
🌺
Rose Hips
The Sweetness
Cut rose hips for soft natural sweetness and a hint of rosé colour in the cup — they round the lavender so the floral note doesn’t feel sharp.
🌿
Lemongrass & Peppermint
The Lift
A small lemongrass-and-peppermint accent stops the cup from feeling heavy — adds a quiet brightness without competing with the lavender.
In the tin
Lavender flowers, rose hips, lemongrass, peppermint leaves.
Origin & Sourcing
Built around lavender flowers cut at the whole-bud grade — the same quality used in cooking and tisanes rather than perfumery. Rounded with rose hips, lifted with lemongrass and peppermint. Caffeine-free, blended in small batches for the Sampson shelf.
