EAST ASIAN HERBAL NOURISHMENT FOR HEALTH & WELL-BEING
PUREST BOTANICALS AVAILABLE
The majority of our herbs and tea are either certified organic or are from smaller farms using natural farming techniques and abstaining from the use of chemical pesticides and herbicides. Herbs grown both as certified organic and with natural farming methods are rigorously tested to ensure their purity.
CLASSICAL HERBAL FORMULAS
Our herbal teas follow the historical source text recipes, instructions and dosage. Many East Asian herbal formulas in common use today were traditionally ground into a coarse powders, similar to a "tea cut" in modern times. They are then either steeped as tea or else simmered for a short time and then drunk as a decoction. SHOP HERBAL TEAS

Our soup mixes include herbs that are traditionally used to strengthen the immune system and support the body through cycles and seasons.
