Lipa from Lipniky

We didn't wait for the first signs of a flu to  sip a cup of linden blossom tea, this summer's harvest. It is a gift from  friends from Lipniky, a tiny slovakian village, which precisely got its name from an enormous old linden tree.

And talking about linden blossoms: did you ever smell a linden tree in full blossom? It's  intense, dizzying, luring, evoking jasmine and tuberose.....

Lucky the one who can sleep the siesta  under the original Lipnikian tree in full blossom!
