Finely Cut Guayusa Tea - Amazonian Energy and Clarity

The Kichwa people of the Amazon have drunk Guayusa before dawn for centuries - to sharpen the mind, read their dreams and prepare for the day ahead. They called it the Night Watchman. That tradition is the starting point for everything we do.

Our guayusa is sourced directly from the Amazon and cut fine for a quicker, stronger brew - clean energy, no bitterness, no crash.

What it does for you

• Sustained energy - Caffeine and theobromine work together for a smooth, steady lift. None of the spike-and-drop of coffee.
• Mental clarity & focus - L-theanine keeps the energy calm and directed. Alert without the edge.
• Antioxidant-rich - Higher antioxidant content than green tea, supporting immune function and reducing oxidative stress.
• Digestive support - Naturally alkalising, it's gentle on the gut and may support healthy metabolism.
• Calm alertness - The same trio of compounds that makes cacao work so well. Focus without friction.

How to prepare

1 tablespoon (3g) per 8oz of water.

1. Bring fresh cold water to a boil.
2. Pour over the guayusa leaves.
3. Steep 4–7 minutes - longer for a darker, stronger brew.
4. Strain into your cup. A French press works well.

In Ecuador, it's traditionally served hot or cold with lemon and panela. Worth trying.
