Press Release: Tea your blues away with Figaro's Herbal Blends!

Last year, I was able to say my thoughts about the product. Here's the press release to promote it for this year.

Introducing Figaro Herbal Blends! More than just coffee, Figaro Coffee Company now offers a variety of herbal blends infused with herbs and fruits to soothe your senses this season. If the extreme weather conditions these days make it easy for you to catch a cold and other diseases and your usual coffee beverage just won't suit your needs to be rejuvenated, Figaro introduces four indigenous and original herbal blends: Sambong, Lagundi, Banaba and Pito Pito with distinct characteristics to relieve you from all the stress and diseases.

Figaro Sambong Blend is a hot cup of tea infused with basil and lemon believed to be a diuretic agent effective in dissolving kidney stones. Sambong leaves and roots when dried and made into tea is popular among elders who seek for herbal medicines to treat colds, sinuses and migraines. The aroma of Sambong Blend infused with the fragrant basil and the tanginess of lemon creates a relaxing and soothing experience with a distinct common juice taste you'd surely enjoy.

Figaro Lagundi Blend is a cup of hot tea infused with mint and orange believed to be an effective treatment for common cough, bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis and pharyngitis. The mix of orange and mint to the dried lagundi leaves creates a refreshing and comforting experience from any person who need healing from cough after that rough day at the office. 'Don't let that cough make you rough. The minty and fruity taste of Lagundi will give you that extra energy to accomplish your tasks for the day.  

Figaro Banaba Blend is a hot cup of tea infused with tarragon, anise and grapes believed to have cleansing abilities that aides in lowering the blood and sugar level of people with diabetes. The dried leaves and roots of Banaba are also used by our elders in treating kidney stones and wounds especially those who have gone surgery. Tarragon has an aroma relatively similar to anise popular in French cooking and proven to have the presence of estragole, a known carcinogen beneficial to a recuperating body. The sweet spice of Tarragon and anise with the fruity grapes in dried Banaba leaves create a perfect taste to cap off that exhausting day.

Figaro Pito Pito Blend is a hot cup of tea infused with Dill and Mango believed to be a cure for almost all ailments after it was invented in the Philppines by the late Ernie Baron. The combination of seven dried herbs and plants: alagaw, banaba, bayabas, pandan, and mangga with half a teaspoon each of anise and cilantro became a distinct popular Filipino herbal medicine claimed by Ernie Baron and his followers to be a great aide for metabolism and a cure for almost all common diseases. With no documented major side effects of the said herbal blend, Pito Pito had become a homegrown remedy of the old and the young to all types of diseases.

Try The Sweets Figaro Offers This Christmas

I got to try these treats during a food tasting event at Figaro. I tried two kinds of brownies. A regular brownie and a Christmas themed brownie. This brownie is kinda unique because of it's mint topping if you don't mind a strong minty taste but for me I enjoyed it.

Fruitcakes never misses a Christmas season but I am not fond of it. But Figaro's Fruitcake was different from the usual fruitcake and it is the only one I get to finished eating. Try them out at your nearest Figaro branch.

Figaro's Limited Edition Planner

Despite the digital age, it's still handy to have a planner on your hand. What can make it more stylish is the planner Figaro is offering for the year 2012. I love how the planner looks like. Besides, the discount coupons, the planner has a red hard bound cover and a brown leather flap jacket that reminds me of secret documents like in Dan Brown novels.

Planner's red hard bound cover

Here's the mechanics: Simply buy PhP350.00 single purchase worth(excluding promo and gift certificate purchase), you get one stamp. Upon completion of ten stamps, you are now a proud owner of the limited edition planner. You are only allowed to be stamped by one Figaro branch only so be sure of the branch that you frequently go.

Figaro Tea Bags

You can now do your own tea with Figaro's tea bags. These tea bags are not your ordinary instant tea. These are also herbal teas that may help you with your healthy maintenance. There are cures that does not come from capsules, tablets or syrups because most are chemicals. Sometimes, cures are required a touch from Mother Nature. It comes with four homegrown Filipino flavors: Banaba, Lagundi, Sambong and Pito-pito. We have a fixed idea when it's herbal, it taste awful but with Figaro, the blend is better than I expected. I suggest to top it with a lemon or you can also make an iced tea with it.
