Herbal Power
Soothes and supports your digestion.

Reason to Love
The ancients of many cultures revered fennel both for its licorice-like aroma and taste, as well as for its charming properties. Attributed with the power to bestow long life, courage, strength and even to ward off evil spirits, we modern plant people highly regard fennel for its capacity to ease uncomfortable feelings of fullness, bloating or gassiness, or as an all-around promoter of healthy digestion.

Taste
Sweet and mildly bitter, with a distinct licorice-like taste.

Organic Fennel

Some of the favorite organic fennel comes from small farms in Bulgaria - one of fennel's native stomping grounds - where it is harvested in the late summer to early fall. Not to be confused with the sweet fennel that is ubiquitous in food and flavoring, the bitter fennel we use is a different variety that has higher essential oil content, which is what gives you that pleasantly soothing experience. Low heat dried and "squeeze cut" (a gentle process that preserves quality), you'll notice little deposits of oil on the top of your tea, a sign of extremely high quality.
