Passionflower
Passiflora incarnata
Finely cut leaves, stems and curly tendrils of the passionflower vine in olive and straw green. The cup is mild, grassy and gently earthy, like sun-warmed hay, and slips easily into soft evening blends.

Why we love passionflower
An evening classic
Passionflower has been steeped as an evening cup in American and European households for generations.
Mild and grassy
Its soft, hay-like flavour sits quietly behind chamomile, lemon balm and lavender, adding body without fuss.
Naturally caffeine-free
Passionflower contains no caffeine, making it a natural fit for blends brewed after dark.
Good to know

Passiflora incarnata, known as maypop, is native to the south-eastern United States, where Indigenous peoples ate its fruit and used the vine. Spanish missionaries saw symbols of the Passion in the elaborate flowers of its relatives and named the family accordingly. The leafy vine later found its way into European herbal teas as a traditional evening brew.
