Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) is an amazing plant with interesting health and caring properties. It is mainly associated with sweets with a specific taste and black color. Licorice root is naturally sweet due to the presence of glycyrrhizin, which is 50 times sweeter than sugar. Liquorice bioactive substances are known for their positive effects on the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system and female reproductive system.

Licorice occurs in Europe and Asia, and its history dates back to ancient times. It was formerly used to treat many diseases, from colds and gastrointestinal ailments, to liver diseases and inflammation. Licorice is one of the most important herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

LIQUORICE DOSAGE AND DIRECTIONS FOR USE
- Licorice root has a very sweet taste, similar to anise, with a bitter-salty taste. The longer the root stays in the water, the more intense it gives the flavor, so it should not be brewed for too long
- It is best to prepare the brew from licorice root. Just pour boiling water over it and brew for about 5 minutes - it's worth adjusting the amount of liquorice and brewing time to your taste preferences
- A pinch of cut licorice root is worth adding to tea to give it an interesting, sweet taste. Licorice goes well with herbal, spice and ginger teas. It doesn't go well with fruit teas and lemon juice. Licorice root can also be chewed.
- The dried root should be stored in a tightly closed container. You can store it for a very long time.

Delightfully smokey

Another tea that's been one of my go to teas for some time. Complex, subtly smokey in flavour that leaves a pleasant earthy aftertaste.

Mullein Flowers

Recommended by a family member this is the 3rd purchase i have made.
when i had covid for the 2nd time Mullein really helped clean my chest of infection and helped to get rid of it quickly.
Its easy to use and there is no nasty taste. Excellent value for money, I have since recommended Mullein to all my friends and family.

Very aromatic

This tea is really nice, you can taste the nutty flavour along with the green tea flavour. Always drink it without any sweeteners it's always so fresh tasting. Fantastic I give it to all my friends and family would definitely be buying again. Its a classic Japanese type of tea and at a good price.
