TeaTapee — Thai Herbal Tea · 15 Herbs
A traditional fifteen‑herb Thai herbal infusion, led by Jewel Vine.
Caffeine‑free, packed in Thailand, and made only with the herbs we list. Brews a deep red‑amber; woody and earthy in the cup. Sold as a herbal tea, with every herb shown openly on this page.
A recipe carried by hand
This is a traditional Thai herbal tea built around Jewel Vine (Derris scandens). The recipe was kept in Thai households and passed from one kitchen to the next for generations and adapted along the way, which is why no two versions are identical. Ours brings together fifteen herbs in a single, well‑defined blend.
In the cup it brews a deep red‑amber, drawn largely from sappanwood, and carries a fresh, herbaceous aroma over a woody, earthy base. We sell it as a herbal tea beverage, made only with the botanical ingredients listed on this page. We describe it by its flavour, aroma, ingredients and origin — nothing more.
