Description

Tulsi is the Sanskrit name of the “Holy Basil” plant grown in India, it isn’t anything like the basil we know here in the west, and is actually part of the mint family. Widely consumed throughout India (much more than coffee!), many families grow their own tulsi plants. A healing balm for the mind and body; tulsi is not only a delicious herbal tea, but wonderful in blends. It has a unique fresh flavor- similar to mint, liquorice, or clove, and pairs well with floral and fresh flavors.

Our Tulsi Holy Basil is the Vana version, pure, organic, and grown and harvested in the traditional manner in India. Used traditionally in Ayurvedic Medicine as an anti-stress healing herb, meaning that it is anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant. More research is needed to help us understand the benefits of consuming tulsi tea regularly, but it has been shown to promote cardiovascular health, protect the body at a cellular level, helps people reach a healthy weight, protects against unwanted bacterial growth, and cures respiratory disease like colds, cough, and congestion.

While it boasts incredible benefits, tulsi tea is not recommended for pregnant women or nursing moms.

I have been buying this tea from Amazon until the retailer (not Tealyra) increased their price dramatically. I shopped around for days and Tealyra was the best price and quality for this tea. This is a staple in my family and like other reviews it is mild, refreshing and calming. I have a stressful job and love to have a cup of this wonderful tea at the end of the day and sometimes again before bed. It pairs well with other mild herbal teas like camomile and Ive tried it with a tiny bit of lavender too. I buy this tea in bulk and find myself sharing it with friends and family in the hope they too enjoy the benefits. Thank you Tealyra.
