DANDELION ROOT DRIED LOOSE HERB PREMIUM QUALITY INFUSION TEA

Taraxacum is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, which consists of species commonly known as Dandelions. The English name, Dandelion, is a corruption of the French “dent de lion” meaning "lion's tooth", referring to the coarsely toothed leaves. The plant is also known as blowball, cankerwort, doon-head-clock, witch's gowan, milk witch, yellow-gowan, Irish daisy, swine's snout and wild endive. The English folk name "piss-a-bed" refers to the strong diuretic effect of the plant's roots.

The entire plant is edible and nutritious, including the leaves, stems, flowers, and roots. Dandelion leaves and buds have been a part of traditional Kashmiri cuisine, Albanian cuisine, Slovenian, Sephardic, Chinese, and Korean cuisines. In Crete, the leaves of a variety called 'Mari' 'Mariaki' are eaten by locals, either raw or boiled, in salads. The flower petals, along with other ingredients, usually including citrus, are used to make dandelion wine. The ground, roasted roots can be used as a caffeine-free dandelion coffee. Dandelion was also traditionally used to make the traditional British soft drink dandelion and burdock, and is one of the ingredients of root beer. Also, dandelions were once delicacies eaten by the Victorian gentry, mostly in salads and sandwiches. The flowers of dandelions are typically eaten before they start to become seed heads.

Historically, dandelion was prized for a variety of medicinal properties, and it contains a number of pharmacologically active compounds. Dandelion is used as a herbal remedy in Europe, North America, and China. It has been used in herbal medicine to treat infections, bile and liver problems, and as a diuretic. Dandelion has been used as a medicinal plant for thousands of years to treat inflammation, swollen lymph nodes, cysts and abscesses, as well detoxifying the kidney and liver.

All our tea is hand processed at the day of dispatch. All our tea (loose-leaf tea and our teabags) is placed to the metal tin or two, three layers’ pouches and heat sealed at the day of dispatch to ensure freshness and aroma of the tea. We use different pouches to pack different teas as not all teas required same space. For example, Oolong tea in opposite to Pai Mu Tan required less space and we can easily put 200 grams in to big pouch when same pouch will contain no more than 80-100 gram of Pai Mu Tan tea. It is the reason we do not offer some tea such a Pai Mu Tan packed to metal tin when weight is higher than 50g.
