Roman Chamomile Flower Infusion

The sweetly-scented, daisy-like flowers of the chamomile plant appear from early summer all the way through to autumn. The golden blossoms are collected as soon as they open and are then dried, and sometimes crushed, before being used to fill tea bags.

Chamomile was highly prized for its medicinal qualities in Ancient Egypt. Its soothing properties mean that as well as calming sensitive or inflamed skin, it can relax tense muscles, ease anxiety and aid restful sleep.
