Birch Bark – Betula pendula

Birch bark comes from the white birch tree (Betula pendula), a species traditionally found across Europe and mountainous regions, including Bulgaria. Valued for centuries in European folk herbalism, the bark is known for its naturally occurring plant compounds, including betulin, which gives it its characteristic earthy aroma and warm brown color. The bark has a mild, woody, slightly bitter profile and is commonly prepared as an herbal infusion or decoction as part of traditional wellness practices.

Traditionally used in herbal routines that focus on seasonal cleansing and general balance, birch bark is appreciated for its grounding nature and long-standing cultural use. It is typically simmered slowly to extract its natural components and enjoyed as a herbal drink, or used in external herbal preparations. Our birch bark is carefully cut, gently dried, and hand-packed to preserve its natural aroma and quality.
