Valerian root, derived from the perennial plant of the Valerianaceae family, is native to Europe and Asia. This remarkable herb has been revered for its medicinal properties for over 2000 years, known for its natural calming effects. Organic valerian root (Valeriana officinalis) offers a complex taste profile that is slightly sweet and spicy with a hint of bitterness.

It is a popular natural remedy for insomnia and sleep disturbances, helping to improve sleep quality without the grogginess associated with some over-the-counter sleep aids. - Relieves Anxiety and Stress: Known for its calming effects, valerian root helps reduce anxiety and stress, providing a sense of tranquility and ease. - Gastrointestinal Relief: Valerian is also used to alleviate gastrointestinal spasms and discomfort, offering relief from digestive distress. Valerian root remains a timeless natural remedy, valued for its ability to support healthy sleep, ease anxiety, and soothe digestive issues. Its unique flavor, while distinctive, can be pleasantly balanced when paired with complementary herbs, making it an indispensable addition to your herbal tea collection.
