Iron Twilight - Organic Loose-Leaf Tea Blend
Quiet the mind. Release the day. Transition into deep, absolute rest.
Organic Iron Twilight is a highly potent, small-batch nighttime infusion engineered for the restless sleeper, the overthinker, and anyone looking to smoothly transition from a buzzing day into profound evening quiet. Formulated with a masterfully balanced matrix of traditional sedative botanicals and grounding roots, this caffeine-free tea serves as your final, comforting ritual before sleep.
By pairing a heavy-hitting central nervous system duo (Skullcap and Passionflower) with a crisp splash of spearmint and soothing whole florals, Iron Twilight delivers a deeply relaxing experience that shuts down circular thoughts without tasting bitter, medicinal, or overly heavy. Hand-blended in small batches by Anvil & Root in Indianapolis, Indiana.
THE BOTANICAL PATH
The Taste: Exceptionally comforting and sweet floral front notes (chamomile and lavender) that open immediately into a clean, crisp, and refreshing spearmint finish. The spearmint acts as a brilliant flavor driver, perfectly masking the deep, musky, and earthy baseline of the valerian root anchor.
-Organic Chamomile Flowers: The Sweet Foundation. Included as whole flowers to provide a gentle, honey-sweet flavor profile and traditional digestive comfort before bed.
-Organic Skullcap: A premium daytime-to-nighttime nervine traditionally utilized to ease physical restlessness, soothe a buzzing nervous system, and soften tension.
-Organic Passionflower: The Thought Quieter. Specifically optimized in this formula to help target a racing mind, quiet repetitive "to-do list" thoughts, and signal the body that it is safe to rest.
-Organic Spearmint: The Flavor Driver. Infuses the blend with clean essential oils that elevate the palate, ensuring a bright, refreshing taste that rounds out the heavy herbs.
-Organic Lavender Flowers: Brings deeply relaxing aromatics that work hand-in-hand with your sense of smell to promote a calm evening environment.
-Organic Valerian Root: The Physical Anchor. Kept at a precise, professional 5% ratio to anchor the deep physical sleep properties of the blend while staying beautifully balanced in the background.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE * Packaging: Arrives in a rustic, resealable kraft bag designed to protect the delicate flowers and lock in the potent aroma of the valerian and lavender.

THE RITUAL (BREWING INSTRUCTIONS)
Because this is a whole-botanical, small-batch blend containing fluffy, lightweight flowers and dense, heavy root segments, natural settling occurs during transit.
1. Awaken the Blend: Give your pouch a thorough, vigorous shake before scooping to ensure a perfectly even distribution of leaves, flowers, and roots.
2. Measure: Use 1 to 2 teaspoons (approximately 3 grams) of loose tea per 8 oz mug.
3. Brew: Pour boiling water directly over the herbs.
4. Steep: Cover your cup tightly and let it steep for 6 to 7 minutes. Covering your mug is mandatory for Iron Twilight—it traps the essential oils of the lavender and mint within the water rather than letting them escape through open steam, ensuring maximum flavor and potency.
5. Sip Slowly: Allow the tea to cool for just a minute or two after straining. As the temperature drops slightly, the sweet chamomile notes and crisp mint will fully bloom on your palate.
STORAGE Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Keep the bag tightly sealed to maintain the strength of the root botanicals.
SAFETY & COMPLIANCE * Allergen Warning: Contains Chamomile. Those with allergies to the Asteraceae family (daisies, ragweed, marigolds) should use caution.
Kitchen Environment: Prepared in a workspace that also handles milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans, and sesame.
Safety Warnings: Consult a healthcare provider if pregnant or nursing. Valerian may cause drowsiness; avoid driving or operating heavy machinery after consuming. Consult a doctor if taking sedatives, anti-anxiety medication, or blood thinners.
