Starwest Botanicals Organic Chamomile Flowers Whole - Dried Loose Leaf Herb for Tea, Herbal Lotions, & Baking, Sourced from Egypt, Certified Kosher, Non-GMO - Bulk 1 lb Bag

This is my absolute favorite high quality brand of loose chamomile tea. The teas are always freshly dried, yellow and has a very nice aroma. I find it to be cost-effective to buy this in bulk. I have bought this brand many times and it last!

Excellent product

When i realized i was becoming a slave to scanning the aisles for boxes of plain camomile teabags on sale, i thought, what am i doing???? And yes the teas would taste different too. So i saw this and thought, why not, let's take a chance. Well! this one pound bag is the size of a small pillow. what a surprise. I put some of it in a small jar to use through the week, took some to work.... At first i thought 'load it up' and would put heaping tablespoon in for my (3 cup) teapot and thought, oh is this bitter? i have had camo tea bags from Slovenia and Croatia is practically next door, how can this be? oh, i was putting too much in. Level tablespoon, easy does it... Water does not have to be super boiling either.. unplug the kettle for a bit.. then pour, let it brew. In summer i will make pot getting ready for bed, and have warm tea for sleep, and during night, and in morning nice to have cold tea. Just a wee strainer,(no more tea bags/paper refuse)required. If i forget it at work, it is still good in the pot next day, and if it's weekend and i still have some in pot , i put in fridge for "iced tea" for the next week....the finished flowers go in the compost (just scoop out with my fingers - i mean do teabags even rot in the compost?) It's mild tasting, it's camomile... I know people have their preferences, but i really taste the different flavour harmonics in this tea when it's cold. A bonus of this is you can rinse your hair with it, and it is great as an eye wash.. yes, there i am, dabbing my tired eyes at work with my camo tea (ha ha)...no, really! bonus.. So, i think this was worth the venture back to bagless tea...

I used to order Starwest Botanicals from their sight directly, but have switched over to ordering bulk herbs from Amazon, because of convenience and often they are cheaper than going to the independent sight directly. Arrived on time and the chamomile flowers are fresh and good. Chamomile must make one of the best teas out there. The taste is good, it is relaxing, aids in digestion, and works with with other admixtures like peppermint and ginger. I don't see why anyone buys tea bags. Lazy I guess. For five bucks you get like twenty tea bags and you have to use like four tea bags to make a decent cup of tea. That is like five, ten servings at best. When you buy tea in bulk via loose leaf herbs, then you get countless (maybe one hundred) servings for only two to three times the price. Again, that is about twenty times more product for only two to three times the price! I would go bulk anytime. NOTE: I always recommend going organic with Starwest Botanicals. It may cost a dollar or two more, but the difference in quality is striking. Especially with their Wild Yam versus Organic Wild Yam. Also, I don't recommend their Kava Kava; it tasts dirty and is of low quality.

Very strong and I can smell the aroma of flowers

Great quality and value, I just gave it a 4 instead of 5 because it was a bit broken up (the chamomile pieces) that may not be preventable, but it was a little disappointing. Overall happy with it. Good quality flowers, added nicely to my tea blend.

Tastes great. Nice herbal tea mixer. Good with honey.

Awesome!
