INCI: Scutellaria lateriflora Herb

Skullcap is a dried herb from Scutellaria lateriflora , traditionally valued in Western herbalism for calm evening routines, de-stress blends and bedtime teas. It has a clean, green taste with soft earthy notes and blends smoothly with chamomile, lemon balm or a small amount of valerian. The cut herb infuses quickly and can also be used in tincture-style extracts and infused oils for DIY salves or lotions.

♡ Why we love it: Skullcap is mild, soothing and easy to blend. It brings quiet composure to evening teas without overpowering the cup.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.

Also available in large pack sizes.

Happy Customer

I want to commend you on your excellent service. As a first-time client I can promise you that not only will I support you again but will most definitely refer you to others. Service is not something that common now days so when you find a company that delivers not only on quality but service as well, that is a company that will have a client that will come back again and again. Thank you!

Dried skullcap

I love the way the product looked when it arrived and as a tea it gives a really calming effect on the body, all the products I've received I'm really happy to say that I chose essentially natural over other options, due to the fact that it was neat and looked like a well dried herb, and with the informative leaflet it comes with.
