Best herb tea Bulgaria can offer. We call it “Mashterka”. Some rare herbs gained popularity but I always suspected it’s due to their rarity rather than taste. Mashterka isn’t rare and is delicious.
PS. Jonathan Teatime is a villain from Hogfather. Couldn’t resist the temptation to name a flower post after him 🙂

Wikipedia has nothing about thyme as a tea. I need that information for my book. Can you explain the tea itself please?

You can use one of the websites that sell it online as a source of information. For example, https://sopharmacy.bg/bg/product/000000000010002037 (it’s a legitimate pharmacy chain)
Says it’s good against cough and also helps with the sleep. It’s also popular as the main ingredient in the mountain mix:

I grew up with it, we would collect herbs and dry them, and then drink that and other herbs as tea.
Worth checking is if Wikipedia’s translation of Мащерка is correct. Some of the boxes of tea say wild thyme, other say Thymus serpyllum
