The thinking

Why Release works

Release brings together botanicals that have quietly shaped afternoon rituals across Europe for generations. Here they are - reimagined for the rhythm of modern life.

At the heart of the blend is hawthorn, one of the best-known botanicals in traditional Western herbalism and the ingredient that first inspired CULTEVER. Today, it continues to attract scientific interest for its potential role in supporting cardiovascular wellbeing and overall vitality. Alongside it, linden flower has long been enjoyed as a gentle afternoon infusion, while lemon balm remains widely studied for its potential to support calm and emotional wellbeing. Rosehip brings natural brightness, orchard apple a subtle sweetness, and spearmint a clean, refreshing finish.

Rather than relying on a single hero ingredient, Release is thoughtfully layered to create a more balanced botanical experience. Every ingredient has been chosen not only for its long history of traditional use and continued scientific interest, but also for the way it contributes to the flavour, aroma and ritual of the cup. This creates our signature apple-mint-vanilla afterglow - a moment of peace, reflection and pure luxury.

Naturally caffeine-free, Release is designed for the quieter part of the day—a gentle pause between work and evening, when slowing down becomes as important as moving forward.

How to brew

One pyramid, 200ml water at 100°C. Steep 5–7 min — longer deepens the body, never bitters.
