An Herbal Tea for Every Occasion Broad silvery-green leaves and lavender trumpet flowers are the hallmark of sage, a favorite herb of gardeners and chefs. Sage is a Mediterranean herb whose favorable taste led to its spread along trade routes to cover much of Europe, Asia and North America. Records of sage's cultivation dates back to ancient Rome, where it was so highly respected, the Romans held an elaborate ceremony involving specially-made clothing and tools merely to harvest sage. Sage is often associated with wisdom, to the degree that a person of great wisdom is often called a sage. In the culinary world, the strong, savory flavor sage provides makes it a splendid seasoning for meat and stuffing. This same flavor creates a particularly flavorful herbal tea. Fresh sage tea has been consumed for thousands of years, and is still considered a dynamic and enjoyable herbal tea to this day. Adding this sumptuous brew to your herbal tea collection will surely enrich your life in a natural way.
