Hand Selected Mugwort Leaf | Artemisia Vulgaris

New Harvest!

We have two fantastic, recently harvested, variations in stock at this time.

How this Organic and Wild Crafted Mugwort Leaf is processed.

1. When we receive Mugwort Leaf it is immediately sterilized. This process is 100% chemical free and eliminates any insects that may have been picked up on its journey to us or elsewhere.

2. Each pound of this material is visually inspected and cleaned. Larger unwanted materials, like off color leaves and stems, and lower quality leaves are removed. Because Mugwort Leaf is fairly large, this also results in the elimination of smaller debris and herb dust.

3. It is then placed in dark, airtight, containers and stored at or below room temperature.

Nice clean fresh leaf.

This process results in a loss of approximately 10 to 20% of the Wild Crafted Leaf and 5 to %10 of the Gourmet Organic. Mostly consisting of stems, lower grade leaf and herb dust.

TEA:
The tea pictured in the product photos was made by boiling 1 gm of leaf per 16 fluid ounces of water for 7 minutes. Then allowing the water to cool and straining out the herbs. Please see the description of each variation for details on how the tea turned out. We find mugwort tea to be calming but also energizing and without the nervousness associated with coffee.

Freshly hand picked Mugwort Leaf acquired directly from plants grown at an Organic Farm here in the US. It was harvested at an early stage of growth so it is slightly less bitter. This is a real treat and we have a very limited supply. If you enjoy Mugwort Tea you will love this leaf. Enjoy!
