Turmeric… the golden spice
Curcuma longa, more commonly known as Turmeric, has a long history of medicinal use, dating back thousands of years. In Southeast Asia, Turmeric is not only used as a spice but also as flavouring, dye and a component in religious ceremonies. Because of its amazing yellow colour, Turmeric is also known as “Indian saffron.” Although Ayurvedic medicine has long been using Turmeric, modern medicine has only recently begun to recognize its many unique health benefits, and to fully appreciate the extent of its healing potential.

jp? Did you know that the clear bags we use that hold our tea are NOT polypropylene plastic bags like many food grade bags? Which means you can compost our cellophane bags and they will naturally break down in your home compost. Our outer packaging is made from recyclable cardboard and we print using vegetable-based inks. We then also ship our products in post-consumer recycled cartons, so you can be sure that we’ve thought about our packaging choices and the effect our products have on the environment.
