The tea
What it is
A single traditional recipe built around Jewel Vine (Derris scandens): fifteen Thai herbs, roots, spices and dried botanicals, ground to a fine powder for a fuller infusion than cut leaf. It brews a deep red-amber cup — woody and earthy, with a fresh herbaceous lift and a warm spice finish.
Sold as a herbal tea beverage. We describe it only by its taste, aroma, ingredients and origin.
The blend
The fifteen botanicals
Every ingredient is named on every pack — nothing hidden, nothing added.
Fifteen of them, and every one is printed on the pack you receive. Below is what each brings to the cup — the woody base, the warm spice, the fresh herbaceous lift — so you know what you are tasting rather than just what it is called.
- 01 Jewel Vine Derris scandens A climbing botanical long used in regional Thai herbal blends
- 02 Vetiver An aromatic grass that lends the cup its earthy base notes
- 03 Thai Black Ginger Kaempferia parviflora A dark Thai rhizome traditional to herbal preparations
- 04 Sea Holly A herb that appears in many traditional Southeast Asian blends
- 05 Cardamom A fragrant pod spice bringing warm, sweet-aromatic notes
- 06 Cat’s Whiskers Orthosiphon aristatus A leafy herb familiar throughout Southeast Asian tea culture
- 07 Goji Berry A dried fruit that rounds and balances the blend
- 08 Saul Waeng A regional Thai botanical from the traditional recipe
- 09 Sandalwood An aromatic wood contributing soft, fragrant depth
- 10 Nutmeg A warm baking spice that deepens the finish
- 11 Orange Blossom A floral note lifting the darker, woodier ingredients
- 12 Cinnamon A sweet, warming bark spice
- 13 Lovage A savory herb adding depth to the body of the cup
- 14 Sand Ginger Kaempferia galanga An aromatic Thai rhizome related to ginger and galangal
- 15 Star Anise A star-shaped spice with a distinctive, lingering finish
The format
Sealed in gold foil, one cup at a time
Ground botanicals lose their aroma to air faster than cut leaf. So every single-cup portion is sealed in its own gold-foil sachet rather than sitting loose in a caddy — the pack you open on day sixty smells like the one you opened on day one.
- One sachet, one cupNo scooping, no infuser, no guesswork about how much to use.
- Opened only when you brew itThe rest of the pack stays sealed, so the last cup is as aromatic as the first.
- Travels wellFlat, sealed and light — a few sachets go in a bag without a tin.
- Every pack lists all fifteenThe full botanical list is printed on the pack itself, not just online.
