INCI: Nepeta Cataria Herb Powder

Catnip Herb Powder (Nepeta cataria) is a finely milled powder made from dried catnip aerial parts. It has a soft mint-family aroma and is traditionally used in calming-style herbal blends and simple infusions. The powder format measures quickly and blends easily, but benefits from fine straining for a smoother cup. It is also popular for cat sachets and enrichment projects due to its naturally aromatic profile.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.

Q: Why does the tea look cloudy?
A: Fine powders can leave natural particles suspended in the brew, straining helps clarify it.

Q: What herbs pair well with catnip?
A: Lemon balm, chamomile, and other gentle mint-family or floral herbs blend well.

Q: How often should cat sachets be refreshed?
A: When the aroma fades. Store powder sealed to keep it aromatic longer.
