London’s new herbal tea haven: Introducing the first Lab Tonica Tea Bar Contemporary herbalism meets sophisticated wellbeing at Gazelli House, South Kensington

Lab Tonica, contemporary new herbal wellness brand, has announced the very first Lab Tonica Tea Bar, opening on Monday 17th May at Gazelli House in South Kensington. The botanical glass house is the perfect destination for tea-lovers and wellness enthusiasts and the striking Lab Tonica Tea Bar puts herbal wellbeing at the heart of the experience, with a collection to suit every need and taste.
 

Lab Tonica challenges the dusty old stereotypes of herbalism with an alchemy of traditional hand-crafted methods and cutting edge design and formats. Devised, created and launched during the pandemic, Lab Tonica’s inaugural range of herbal teas, aromatherapy balms and pillow mists are set to shake up the wellness industry.
 
For a real energy boost, tea fanatics can opt for a burst of POW, an invigorating blend with ginger, and lemongrass. Or take a soothing sip of Breathe, with calming linden blossom and ashwagandha to keep you grounded no matter what the day throws at you. Fend is a fruity fusion of hibiscus, elderberry and echinacea to help bolster the immune system; or spread the love with a cup of Saucy tea, a sensual blend with jasmine, cocoa shells and rose. End the day the right way with a restful cup of  Unplugged, let the passion flower, lavender and chamomile relax your body and mind.

 
Kitty McEntee, Founder of Lab Tonica said, “Our aim is to take herbal products out of the cupboard and put them in pride of place on the shelf, and this is exactly what our collaboration with Gazelli House does. The contemporary pack design of our teas create a rainbow of joy within the beautiful glass house at Gazelli London, but our collaboration goes deeper than this. It is a partnership built on shared values, a love of nature, a desire to share knowledge and skills and to help people find inner peace and wellbeing. Jamila at Gazelli House is a kindred spirit and I’m excited to see where our partnership will take us”

 
Jamila Asgarova, Founder of Gazelli House also commented, “A love of tea is deeply ingrained within the spirit of Gazelli House, with inspiration drawn from the tea culture of my homeland, Azerbaijan. Here, tea drinking is almost sacred, and a key part of each day. We were drawn to the bright, vibrant teas from Lab Tonica: combining the knowledge of natural ingredients and their effect on wellbeing with a ‘mood’ to suit the occasion, and the unique needs of the drinker. Our glasshouse is just the location to escape from the city and bathe yourself in the light of the morning and day, or dusk of the evening, inhaling the aroma of your chosen tea, and taking small, hot sips. Together with Kitty and our team, we have further curated the space to echo the thriving nature of a herbalist or apothecarist’s lab, bringing the outdoors indoors, to complement the offering and deeply stimulate the senses”.
