Earthy, aromatic and steeped in folklore, mugwort is one of those plants that has captured people’s imaginations for generations.
Made from mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), this distinctive herbal infusion has a robust, herbaceous flavour with pleasantly bitter notes and a warming, aromatic finish. Its character is wonderfully untamed — a tea for those who enjoy exploring the wilder side of the herbal world.
Mugwort has a long history in European folk traditions, where it was associated with protection, seasonal rituals and the natural rhythms of the year. It also appears in traditional herbal practices across different cultures, making it a fascinating plant for anyone interested in botanical history and folklore.
Its name is often linked to old European customs involving mugwort and midsummer celebrations, when the plant was associated with protection and good fortune. Today, it remains a favourite among plant enthusiasts, folklore lovers and those drawn to the stories woven around our native wild herbs.
Add a small amount to freshly boiled water and steep for around 3–5 minutes, adjusting carefully to taste, as mugwort can become quite bitter with longer brewing. Strain before drinking.
Its bold herbal flavour is best approached simply at first, so you can get to know the character of the plant.
