How to Brew Morpheus Awaits
Keep the cup gentle and aromatic.
Morpheus Awaits is built mostly from delicate leaves, flowers, and aerial herbs, with valerian root adding deeper earthy character. A covered infusion helps preserve the blend’s softer aromatic notes while giving the herbs enough time to fully steep.
