Pink Cornflower
Alpine Herbs Organic

Special features in location, cultivation and processing

Thanks to its unique climatic conditions, the idyllic valley in which the tea farm is nestled in the Grisons Alps is ideal for growing herbs and flowers. The plants are exposed to a stimulating climate at 1000 metres, surrounded by high mountains, which slows their growth and increases their proportion of nutrients. Their location on the southern side of the Alps allows them to benefit from a high number of sunny days, intense sunlight, and significant temperature fluctuations between day and night. Depending on the weather, the harvest begins at different times in May or June, during the peak flowering phase. The blossoms are carefully hand-picked and then gently air-dried in the mountain sun before being packaged, preserving their delicate qualities.

Single Origin

These flowers come 100% from the Grison Alps, sourced directly from the tea farm.
