Hyssop Spagyric Tincture

from $39.95

All of our herbal extracts use organically grown and/or ethically wildcrafted herbs and certified organic food-grade ethanol diluted to specific potencies in filtered and/or distilled rainwater, unless otherwise specified.

Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis) an aromatic, evergreen subshrub of the mint (Lamiaceae) family has been held in high esteem throughout the Mediterranean and European traditions for well over two thousand years. Revered by Greek and Roman physicians, cultivated in medieval monastery gardens, and later promoted under the reforms of Charlemagne, hyssop became one of the classic warming herbs of the Western Materia medica and a popular flavouring agent in traditional herbal liqueurs like Benedictine and Chartreuse.

Traditionally considered a stimulating expectorant, aromatic bitter and gentle diaphoretic, hyssop can help to clear mucus from the lungs, support comfortable breathing, soothe the throat and promote perspiration whilst supporting the body's innate immune responses during the early stages of seasonal illness or in states of chronic damp-cold / spasmodic conditions. Think bronchitis, cold & flu, asthma, allergies, whooping cough, symptoms associated with emphysema, inflamed or infected respiratory conditions etc...

The aromatic bitter qualities play their role in stimulating digestive secretions, helping to relieve wind, bloating and digestive sluggishness whilst restoring warmth and tone to the gastrointestinal tract. Historically, hyssop was also employed to support healthy circulation, menstruation, urinary function and skin health.

This spagyric was prepared from fresh flowering hyssop from my garden, using the traditional methods of intentional extraction, purification, reunification & maturation of the herb to produce a balanced whole-plant preparation.
