Mullein Leaf Powder Verbasum Thapsus - Bulk - 1KG

Features

Description

Mullein Leaf Powder is a finely milled botanical powder made from dried Verbascum thapsus leaves. It is traditionally used as a demulcent and mild expectorant herb in throat and chest comfort blends. Mullein leaf powder suits gentle herbal teas, tinctures, aromatic steams, gargles, compresses, bath soaks and DIY capsule blends.

Because mullein leaf can contain fine hairs that may irritate the throat, teas and liquid preparations should always be strained very well. Why we love it: Mullein leaf powder is a practical respiratory-comfort herb for teas, steams and mellow blends. It pairs well with thyme, lemon balm and other gentle botanicals for warm, soothing routines.
