Re: What is your favorite caffeine-free tisane?
The same way I prepare chamomile: water heated to 100 degrees Celsius poured over a teaspoon of fennel seeds or a teabag. I leave it in for five minutes (if you want stronger tea, it could be more, but in my experience fennel seeds tend to be heavily aromatic and five minutes are sufficient). Tisane...

Re: Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone! I have been a tea aficionado for a couple of years now.
