Calm is a light, soothing beverage with the sweet, floral taste of chamomile and a smooth finish. Chamomile is one of the classic herbal infusions, enjoyed by many as a soothing nightcap. The Tazo? version has more flavor and color than most. The list of ingredients provides great insight into the complexity of flavor. See how many different tastes you can pick out. Tazo uses Egyptian chamomile for its slightly sweet, apple-like flavor, and Mexican chamomile for its herbal, hay-like characteristics and hearty mouthfeel. The combination of the two origins lends Calm a solid base to which the other ingredients are then added. Hibiscus flowers add a slight bit of tart, juicy, fruity flavor, and spearmint and peppermint from the Pacific Northwest contribute just the right amount of mint taste. The lemongrass is included to add brightness and lemony-sweetness to the final blend while pink rose petals from India and Morocco add light, sweet, floral notes. From Eastern Europe, Tazo purchases blackberry leaves for their spicy, bitter, and astringent qualities and lemon balm for its light, sweet lemon flavor and mouthfeel. Finally, licorice and sarsaparilla round off the blend and add sweetness and creaminess.
