Ashwagandha Root – Withania somnifera

Ancient adaptogenic root for balance.

Ashwagandha root, also known as Indian ginseng, is a traditional Ayurvedic herb valued for centuries for its grounding and revitalizing qualities. This cut root comes from the hardy Withania somnifera plant, native to dry regions of India, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. It has an earthy aroma and a naturally bitter, warming taste, making it a classic ingredient in herbal teas and wellness rituals focused on balance and resilience.

Traditionally used to support stress adaptation, energy, and overall vitality, ashwagandha is rich in naturally occurring plant compounds such as withanolides and antioxidants. The root is suitable for herbal infusions or gentle decoctions and can also be incorporated into culinary preparations. Packed in a kraft pouch and hand-filled in small batches to preserve freshness and aroma. Do not exceed typical culinary amounts.
