I do not normally buy many herbal tisanes but this one intrigued me. I think it is because I love the smell of the lavender oils my wife uses around the house. Oh, and the beautiful purple liquor in the picture on the Harney website!
That said, my brew turned out green! I was a bit disappointed by that. :(
The drink itself is very good. Naturally, one first notices the lavender aroma and flavor. Behind that, though, I am also tasting a chamomile flavor and a slight sweet mint note—reminding me of a brewed peppermint tisane. The combination of these flavors makes this a wonderful drink to have right before bed. It is quite calming as expected.
I am glad I bought the sample and will likely purchase another shipment of this sometime. I won’t drink it regularly, I’m sure, so I can’t imagine buying a whole tin of it, but it is good to have a small quantity on hand for those occasional evenings when I am in the mood for it.

It is great mixed with tulsi on high stress days, and mixed with other teas just for a change!
Oooh, I will definitely have to try that—thank you! Do you have a specific tea that you recommend for a mixture?
I use bulk tulsi from our local health food place with great success.
I, too, buy loose tulsi in bulk. I like how the tulsi tames tension and the lavender tames tulsi! Lavender mixes with Earl Grey teas pretty well. Experiment and have fun!
Thanks, ashmanra and gmathis! I will be making a trip to our local health food store and will look for tulsi. I’ve never had it so I am insterested in trying the mixture. Thank you both for the recommendation!
