Overview
Tagetes lucida—also known as “cloud flowers,” "Aztec marigold,” and "Mexican mint tarragon”—boasts vibrant golden blooms and a fruity, herbaceous aroma that is as captivating as it is complex. Revered for centuries, this plant was traditionally smoked, consumed in powder form or burned as incense—to banish fears and soothe the spirit. Even today, the dried flowers are sold in Central America, where they are prized as a shamanic herb and aphrodisiac. People incorporate them into ceremonial cacao drinks, therapeutic tea infusions, rejuvenating bush baths and aromatic smoking blends known as yaultli. Some even infuse the flowers in tequila to craft hallucinogenic elixirs and cocktails. Not too long ago, these mystical blooms made their way to Northern Thailand, flourishing in the lofty heights of Doi Mae Salong. Here, we combine and age the flowers with Ruby Oolong tea from nearby gardens to create something extraordinary: a vibrant, flavorful infusion with a powerful clarifying effect. We hope you enjoy every sip of this rare and transformative blend.
