INCI: Artemisia Afra Herb Powder

African Wormwood Powder (Wilde Als, Artemisia afra) is a finely milled, strongly aromatic herb made from carefully dried aerial parts. Traditionally valued as an aromatic bitter, this convenient powder suits simple teas, steam preparations and classic kitchen bitters rituals.

♡ Why we love it: The bold, aromatic character makes a brisk, clearing herbal tea that's naturally bitter and grounding before meals. It's also wonderfully versatile, whether you sip it warm, use it for steam preparations, or add a pinch to homemade bitters and tonics.

Sizes: 200g or 1kg.
