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.

- 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.

It has a very good flavour for a green tea. Light, yes…. But some real middle and and just a tiny bottom tea flavour … more than the usual notes -
The first large brew was shared with 4 others and rarely have I seen arms so eagerly reaching for the pot, good colour and scent.
