Fennel Linden Herbal Infusion - Lady Dodo - Teatower - 400g

Lady Dodo – Herbal Infusion

It's ten o'clock in the evening. The day is finally winding down, and you set your book on the nightstand. In the quiet kitchen, the kettle sings softly. Lady Dodo is waiting for you — that faithful companion who turns every end of evening into a ritual of peace. A few minutes of steeping, and the world slows down.

In the cup, she reveals a golden hue with amber highlights. Fennel brings its warm, anise-like notes, while chamomile releases its floral sweetness. Orange zest sparkles subtly, verbena soothes, and soft blackberry leaves wrap it all in a gentle, herbal tenderness. Every sip is an invitation to let go.

Why she's called Lady Dodo

Because that's the nickname our customers gave her. "My evening Lady Dodo," "I can't sleep without my Dodo," "Lady Dodo is my best friend." With 72 reviews and a 4.64/5 rating, she's one of Teatower's most beloved infusions. And the most re-ordered, quite literally — once people try her, they always come back for more.

The benefits of natural sleep

Fennel supports digestion (a calm stomach means deeper sleep). Linden has been used since ancient times for its gentle sedative properties. Chamomile reduces anxiety and prepares the body for rest. And verbena completes the trio with its ability to release nervous tension. This isn't a sleeping pill — it's a ritual of transition between day and night.

Perfect pairings

Wonderful with a square of milk chocolate (sweetness upon sweetness), a vanilla biscuit, or simply on its own — she needs nothing else. Best avoided with overly strong flavours that would overpower her delicate character.

Ingredients

Fennel seeds (20.5%), orange zest, verbena, soft blackberry leaves, chamomile (10.5%), natural flavouring.

Did you know? Fennel was considered sacred in ancient Greece. Its Greek name — "marathon" — gave its name to the famous battle and race, as the Plain of Marathon was covered in wild fennel.
