INCI: Cetraria Islandica Powder

Iceland Moss Powder is a finely milled lichen powder made from carefully dried Cetraria islandica . It is naturally rich in softening polysaccharides and is traditionally used as a demulcent botanical in herbal teas, decoctions, syrups, gels and rinse-off skincare preparations. Its mellow, earthy flavour and smooth texture make it useful where a comforting mouthfeel or gentle body-building ingredient is desired. The bulk powder format suits herbal makers, tea blenders and small-batch producers preparing throat, chest or digestive comfort blends.

♡ Why we love it: Iceland moss powder is soothing, smooth and practical for syrup-style preparations, gels and carefully strained teas. It brings a soft, comforting feel to blends without needing a strong flavour profile.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.
