Hacendado Fennel Infusion (Hinojo) is a 100% fennel herbal tea made from dried fennel seeds, in 20 generous 2 g tea bags. Fennel is one of the oldest and best-known herbs of Mediterranean and European tradition. Its infusion has a naturally sweet, gently aromatic, anise-like flavour with a soft, rounded finish. It is naturally caffeine-free, has no added sugar and has virtually no calories.
What it's for
