Sometimes, one of the most nourishing things you can do for yourself is pause, take a breath, and have a cup of beautiful, herbal tea.
That’s certainly what naturopath Chalimah Jeanne found. A decade ago, she started creating teas for her clients, with wellness firmly in mind. The teas got so popular, she started selling them at markets, with 12 tea blends on offer at her stall at Paddington Markets in Sydney. Things grew from there, and led her to launch Organic Merchant, which is now one of Australia’s leading wellness tea brands. As well as creating organic teas and tisanes, the Organic Merchant range now also includes cacao blends and bath soaks.
As a naturopath with 20 years experience, Chalimah knows first-hand the importance of what we all put into our bodies. Growing up in a remote, coastal town, she also developed a strong appreciation for the planet’s natural beauty. So for every product in the Organic Merchant range, every effort is taken to use the highest quality ingredients, while also being kind to Mother Nature.
Each tea blend is years in the making, combining learnings from modern science, with ancient Western, Chinese, Peruvian and Ayurvedic teachings. They are all then hand-blended in Sydney, using 100% certified organic ingredients sourced from farms and producers who meet rigorous guidelines. Ingredients are also sustainably harvested from their natural wild habitat, then blended based on nutrient value, therapeutic properties and taste profile.
And this commitment of doing good goes beyond what is put into the teas. All packaging is kind to the planet, and either recyclable, biodegradable, compostable or reusable.
One of the best ways to discover the Organic Merchant range, or give the gift of wellness to a loved one? With an Organic Tea gift set. Each set comes with four teas to enjoy, beautifully boxed up with a stainless steel infuser.
Just in time for the festive season, the Fragrant & Festive Tea Gift Box will take you on an aromatic journey to the northern hemisphere where wintery wonderlands abound, and then get you in the mood for celebrating. Brew up a hot Mulled Spice tea, then cool down with the Moroccan Mojito, Grey Martini and Spiced Apple iced teas.
The Serenity Tea gift box is the perfect antidote to the silly season with a digestive tea, golden turmeric tea, meditation tea, and a refreshing peaceful tea. For the adventurer at heart, the Wanderlust gift set combines the aromas and flavours of Marrakesh, Mumba, Paris and Istanbul, or for the perfect way to revitalise and renew the body, the Wellness Tea Gift Set combines four tea blends designed to provide a well-needed detox and uplift.
The flavour is up to you. What really matters is the practice, and taking that moment for yourself and wrapping your hands around a brew from Organic Merchant will leave you feeling loved and well-nourished.
