Orange peel is a frequent ingredient in tea blends. It contains bitter-tasting flavonoids that stimulate the release of various digestive juices. These not only relieve flatulence and bloating, they can also stimulate the appetite. That is why orange peel is often an ingredient in digestive tinctures and an important ingredient in our Swedish Bitters.
Centaury has many names. Depending on the region, it is also called feverfew, God’s grace herb or bitter herb, and it is easy to see why given their respective uses. The extract is especially popular when it comes to stimulating the digestive juices of the liver, gall bladder and stomach.
Angelica was grown in medieval monastery gardens, primarily to combat the plague. Its name probably refers to the celestial powers attributed to it. The main plant, which is quite stately at 2m high, contains coumarins, caffeic acid derivatives and essential oils as its most important constituents. Dried angelica roots are used in our Swedish Bitters and contribute to their bitter taste.
Cinnamon was already mentioned in the Old Testament. In Europe it has been used since around 500 BC. The spice not only tastes great in Christmas biscuits, it also stimulates the digestive in those who suffer from flatulence and loss of appetite.
