Traditional Licorice Root

Traditional Medicinals – Organic Licorice Root Herbal Tea – 16 Tea BagsThe word “licorice” is actually a corrupted version of its original Greek named Glukurrhiza, which means, literally, “sweet root.” Called “sweet stalk” in Sanskrit and “sweet herb” in Chinese, licorice is deeply loved around the world, not only for its signature sweetness, but for its role in supporting respiratory and digestive health. This earthy root tea is easy to enjoy because licorice is simply lovable – and it is hard to find a more shining example of everything that makes licorice fine.The sweet earthiness of licorice is unmistakable and is a result of a naturally occurring compound called glycyrrhizic acid. The presence of this compound is a marker of quality you can taste. Traditional Medicinals works closely with 14 collectors who sustainably wild collect the licorice root for this tea. For nine months of the year, they live and harvest from Kazakhstan’s vast stands of wild licorice, which stretch as far as the eye can see.Organic Licorice Root Herbal Tea Benefits: May Soothe Digestive Tract May Promote Respiratory Health Sweet & Earthy Certified USDA Organic Non-GMO Project Verified Kosher Certified B Corporation
