From Sonnentor

Melissa, as it is also known, delights the nose with its citrusy smell. It’s flavour has an added layer of subtle sweetness which makes it go beautifully with fish dishes. Lean back, relax and enjoy. Melissa is Latin for honeybee. This is not a coincidence, because Melissa was once planted as a pasture for bees. Charles the Great ordered the cultivation of Melissa in monastic gardens, from which developed “Melissengeist”, a tonic made of natural herbs.

Another single herb tea and this time it is lemon balm; and again it is herb we have in our garden, so nothing new for me.

What is new for me is that the latin Melissa means honeybee and well as you can see, German name is Melisse (Zitronen means Lemon) and it is not a coincidence, as it was (at least) once planted as a pasture for bees.

But to the tea… yes it is pure lemon balm, with its herbal note and little lemony as well. It’s fine and there weren’t any bad, for instance, bitter notes.

Delightful and relaxing.
