So far my experience of trying chamomile teas over the years has not been overly positive. While great mixed into some of my favorite blends, my description of it on its own was largely "dishwatery".

After trying a sachet of Harney and Sons Chamomile tisane with my last order, I absolutely LOVED it. It's a bit pricey compared to many brands, but the light floral smell with subtle smell and taste of apples is delicious and actually present.

This is one of the first times I didn't taste the flavor of the bag over the flavor of the chamomile and it was heavenly! The sachets don't contain many stems or whole flowers, but more of the dark yellow flowers and pollen.

A wonderfully light yet full-bodied tea, I definitely recommend!

Welcome to the site, and thank you for your first review!

I definitely agree that some chamomiles can have an unpleasant flavor...a sort of bitterness that I can see coming across as soapy. But I do like it when I get a high quality batch!

Thanks! I was using your site to get some ideas and thought it might be fun to submit a review for a tea I really enjoyed. It's so much fun to hunt for a new favorite with people sharing their thoughts about what is out there.
