What is Buckwheat tea?

Discover the magic grain. Finally in the Netherlands.

Buckwheat tea is roasted buckwheat seeds, steeped in hot water. The smell is warm and toasty. Buyers describe it as cookie-like, biscuity, slightly caramel. It's satisfying without being heavy.

And because it has zero caffeine, there's no ceiling. You can drink it in the morning, at your desk, after dinner, right before sleep. No disruption.

This is NOT a wellness product dressed up as tea. It's just a really good drink that happens to be good for you too. Being popular across Asia and Eastern Europe, now finally in the Netherlands.

Why is Serenitea different?

The tea aisle has a hundred options. None of them taste like this.

  • Nothing to hide.

    Most tea in the supermarket is background noise: dusty bags, artificial aromas, generic flavors to mask a mediocre base. Serenitea is different because the taste comes first via single ingredient: buckwheat. No artificial aromas. No sweeteners. Pure nature.

  • Simple by design

    The seeds sink on their own. No strainer, no infuser, no ritual equipment required. Pour, wait 3 minutes, drink. Add water again. Some people say that the second cup is often the better one.

  • Nothing wasted

    When you're done brewing, you're not done with the seeds. Stir them into yogurt or toss them on a salad, they're full of protein and fiber. Or press them into the soil of a houseplant. Natural fertilizer, straight from your mug.

"The Dutch introduced tea to Europe in the 1600s. And yet here we are, settling for supermarket tea bags that don't have neither taste, nor soul. I discovered buckwheat tea traveling, fell in love, and kept bringing it back in my luggage. Eventually I stopped waiting for someone else to bring it here."
