Character

Pleasant tasting infusion with a mild grassy flavour

Story

According to Greek mythology raspberries were discovered on Mount Ida on the Greek island of Crete while the gods of Olympia were searching for berries. Legend has it that raspberries were once white but while picking the fruit Zeus' nursemaid, Ida pricked her finger on a thorn which stained all the berries red, they have remained so ever since. Studies have shown a link between regularly drinking raspberry leaf tea during the third trimester of pregnancy and reducing the discomfort of child birth by relaxing the cervix muscles.
