Thistle and Thyme

Drift into a space where the veil is thin and the air shimmers with unseen things. The Thistle and Thyme is an apothecary of the in-between — offering teas that calm the spirit, herbs that whisper ancient truths, and flowers that seem to remember you. Here, teas steep like whispered spells, herbs hum with old memory, and blooms are more than beautiful — they’re messengers.

This Week's Teas:

Ishgardian Tea: A favorite of our resident Purveyor of Value (as well as many other Elezen, Ishgardian or not) this tea is a mild blend, steeped carefully in warmed milk instead of water. It is sure to bring you peace; and some say prosperity.Steppe Tea: A requested blend! This thick, creamy tea is similar in texture to a hot chocolate, without being quite so sweet. Many tribes drink this tea before the Naadam, as it is thought to both relax tense muscles while invigorating the mind, giving the warrior further clarity on the battlefield.Matcha Tea: Said to bring luck and prosperity, this gently flavored (but slightly bitter!) and perfectly brewed pure matcha tea will surely captivate you. Can be heavily sweetened upon request, to match the Eorzean palate.Mulled Tea: Ah, the mulled tea! Bringer of joy and jollity! This spiced blend is sure to warm your very soul and lift your moods right up into the sky! Perfect as the days cool and the nights grow longer.
