Description
Birch leaf comes from the birch tree (Betula pendula and Betula pubescens), a tree that has an important place in both nature and folklore throughout Europe. The young, dried leaves produce a mild, green infusion with a fresh, slightly earthy taste and are often drunk pure or combined with other herbs.
Botanical background
The birch belongs to the birch family (Betulaceae) and is known for its graceful white bark and delicate leaves. In spring, the leaves are picked by hand and then dried to preserve their light aroma. Both the silver birch (pendula) and the downy birch (pubescens) are traditionally used for herbal tea.
Birch leaf offers a mild, natural herbal tea with a fresh undertone — ideal for those who enjoy light botanical infusions.
