INCI: Sutherlandia frutescens

Cancerbush is a traditional Southern African herb commonly prepared as a simple infusion and used in everyday wellbeing routines. It is often chosen for blends focused on steady vitality, resilience, and caffeine-free herbal support. The flavour is herbal and grounding, which makes it easy to combine with other botanicals in daily tea blends. This dried herb is well suited to home use where a straightforward, traditional infusion is preferred.

♡ Why we love it: Cancerbush is one of those botanicals that feels deeply rooted in place and tradition. We value herbs with a long history of everyday use, especially when they bring simplicity, versatility, and a grounded character to the cup. It also reflects our preference for single-ingredient botanicals that are easy to work with and lend themselves well to thoughtful, low-fuss herbal routines.
