Botanical name: Hypericum perforatum

Our organic St. John’s wort brews into a mild, slightly bitter, herbaceous tea with soft green notes. Naturally caffeine-free, this flowering herb has a long history of traditional use in herbal practices and is commonly associated with emotional balance, nervous system support, and gentle mood support.

Sourced from Vietnam, the aerial parts are carefully dried to preserve their colour, aroma, and character.

About St. John’s Wort

St. John’s wort has been used in traditional herbal systems for centuries and has commonly appeared in preparations associated with emotional steadiness, resilience, and nervous system support. Historically, it was valued as a supportive herb during periods of emotional strain and seasonal shifts.

In herbal tradition, St. John’s wort is often used over time rather than acutely, and is typically included in calming or mood-focused routines. It continues to be appreciated for its long-standing role in herbal practice and its approachable nature when prepared as a tea.


How to Brew

  • Hot tea: Steep 1–2 tsp per cup of freshly boiled water for 5–10 minutes

  • Iced tea: Brew strong, strain, and chill
