The Story Behind the Rochambeau Brand
Rochambeau brings together traditional European herbal expertise with high standards of sourcing to deliver a proper French style tisane.

 Simple Purity: The brand focuses on single ingredient infusions, ensuring that the natural power of the plant is never masked by artificial flavours.
 Expert Selection: Only mature leaves are chosen to ensure a high essential oil content, which is why the scent is so vibrant when you open the box.
 French Tradition: Known as the secret weapon of French "art de vivre," this tea is designed to bridge the gap between a health drink and a gourmet treat.

🌍 Rochambeau Commitment To The Planet
Rochambeau is committed to sustainable production and ensuring their products have a minimal impact on the environment.

 Plastic Free Bags: The tea bags are made from natural plant fibres like Manila hemp and contain zero plastic seals, making them industrially compostable.
 Eco Packaging: The outer box is made from FSC certified card, so you can pop it straight into your household recycling.
 Sustainable Sourcing: The brand works with growers who prioritise biodiversity and healthy soil management for the long term health of the land.

🔍 How Does Rochambeau Verveine Infusion Compare to:

 Twinings Lemon & Ginger: Rochambeau offers a pure, single ingredient profile, whereas Twinings is much spicier and heavier on the ginger heat.
 Teapigs Pure Lemongrass: While both are citrusy, Verveine has a more sophisticated herbal "leaf" taste compared to the candy like zest of Teapigs.
 Clipper Organic Lemon Verbena: Both are great for eco conscious drinkers, but Rochambeau uses a slightly larger 1.6g bag for a more intense flavour.


🫖 Brewing The Perfect Cup of Rochambeau Verveine Infusion, 25 Tea Bags 40g

Water temperature: 100°C, just boiled water is essential for full extraction of theaflavins and thearubigins.
Measure: One bag per 200ml of water for a standard cup; use 2 bags in 300ml if you want builder strength.
Steep: 3 to 5 minutes; longer for a stronger, milkier cup, shorter for a lighter pour.
Service: Add a splash of full fat milk and stir; sugar to taste. The tannins are balanced by the milk casein, which is why British tea is almost always drunk with milk.
Iced version: Brew 4 bags strong in 500ml, dissolve 4 tablespoons of caster sugar in the warm tea, cool, dilute with 500ml of cold water and the juice of 2 lemons.
Caffeine note: Roughly 40 to 50mg per cup, around half a filter coffee. Avoid after 3pm if you are caffeine sensitive.
Best with: a full English breakfast, toast and marmalade, fruit cake, scones with cream.

## Flavour Science

The flavour of Rochambeau Verveine Infusion, 25 Tea Bags 40g is built in three layers, and reading them in order explains exactly why the cup tastes the way it does from the first lift of steam to the last swallow.The outer layer is aromatic: a caffeine free infusion of rochambeau verveine infusion. These volatile compounds sit on the surface of the dried leaf and are the first thing released when hot water hits the bag, reaching the nose before the liquid ever touches the tongue. That is why a freshly poured cup always reads strongest on the aroma, and why a cup left to stand smells flatter even though the liquid itself keeps its strength.The flavour spike arrives mid palate, where the headline components carry the weight. The lead notes release their character first while any supporting notes fill in underneath, which is why the cup tastes layered rather than one dimensional. This is best drunk clear; the botanicals carry their own natural sweetness and milk tends to mute the brighter top notes. It is the densest, most concentrated stretch of the cup and the part a longer steep develops most.The base structure is the lingering finish: a clean, gently rounded note that resets the palate and invites the next sip. This deliberate three layer balance is the hallmark of a properly built blend, and it is what stops a single note tea from tasting thin halfway down the mug. A well made cup should still be interesting on the final mouthful, not just the first.Getting it right in the cup. Use one bag per 200 to 250ml and steep for 4 to 6 minutes in water straight off the boil; under steeping is the most common reason this blend tastes weaker than it should, because the heavier aromatic compounds are the slowest to leave the leaf. Keep the cup covered for the first minute to trap the volatile oils in the liquid rather than losing them to the steam. Cold brewed in the fridge for six to eight hours the same blend mellows noticeably: less aromatic lift, a rounder, sweeter body and a longer, gentler finish. Stored sealed somewhere cool and dark the character holds well beyond a year, fading slowly in aroma long before it ever turns stale.How water and temperature change it. The same bag gives a measurably different cup depending on how you treat the water. Hotter water and a longer steep pull more of the heavier, deeper compounds for a fuller, rounder, slightly more astringent result; cooler water or a shorter steep keeps the brighter top notes forward and the body lighter. Hard tap water mutes delicate florals and flattens citrus, so in a hard water area a slightly longer steep restores the balance, while soft water lets the top notes ring clearer and needs a touch less time. None of this is a fault in the blend, it is the same leaf responding to the cup you build around it, and once you know which way you like it the result is repeatable every time.
