Agrimony
(Agrimonia eupatoria)
Mildly earthy, pleasantly herbaceous, and steeped in centuries of European herbal tradition, agrimony has long been valued as a versatile botanical for teas and traditional wellness preparations. Our air-dried, cut & sifted agrimony is sourced from Bulgaria, where favorable growing conditions help produce a high-quality herb while careful air drying preserves its natural color, aroma, and beneficial plant compounds. This awesome herb belongs to the rose (Rosaceae) family and is a hardy perennial. Ideal for herbal infusions, tinctures, and botanical blends, agrimony remains a cherished herb among traditional herbalists.
Agrimony contains naturally occurring tannins (found in the yellow "steeple" flowers), flavonoids, phenolic acids, and triterpenes, which have been studied for their antioxidant properties and their role in supporting overall wellness. Agrimony is revered for its paradoxical ability to tone leaky and/or relaxed tissue while simultaneously relieving deep neural and muscular tension. It has also been appreciated as a gentle astringent herb and is commonly included in traditional herbal tea blends.
