NATIVE TEA (Fireweed + Blackcurrant leaves)

For kidney health, peace, and longevity.

"Dzimtā tēja" (Homeland Tea) is a carefully fermented blend where two forces of Latvian nature meet: Fireweed (80%) and Blackcurrant leaves (20%). Unlike regular teas, both ingredients here are fermented, which opens cell membranes and allows the body to absorb the full power of the plant, while maintaining a mild taste.

Why is this combination unique?

💧 For Kidneys and Fluid Exchange:

Blackcurrant leaves are traditionally called "nature's antibiotic" for the urinary tract. They help excrete uric acid, reduce swelling, and support kidney health (prevention of cystitis and nephritis).

🔥 The Power of Fireweed (Ivan-Chai):

Legend has it that fireweed heals the earth after fires – it also heals people. It calms, regulates digestion, and acts as a "carrier" that helps the active ingredients of blackcurrant leaves work longer and more consistently.

🛡️ For Peace and Immunity:

• Caffeine-free – calms the nervous system and reduces stress.

• Cleanses blood and lymph, helping the body resist infections.

• Improves metabolism and helps recover strength after illness.

Preparation ritual:

• Water: 80°–90°C (never pour boiling water to avoid scalding the "live" tea).

• Time: Let it steep for at least 15 minutes. If left for 35–40 minutes, the tea will fully open and become richer.

• Re-steeping: This tea can and should be steeped 2–3 times – with each time it releases different nuances.

Hand-picked, fermented at <40°C. Not recommended for children under 7 years of age.
