Tinctures are...

Tinctures are extractions of a single herb that provide a potent and convenient medium for consuming herbal medicine. Our tinctures are made with 100% organic, gluten-free cane sugar alcohol filtered by volcanic rock from the big island of Hawaii. 

Ideal for on-the-go and travel scenarios, tinctures require no preparation for consumption. Simply drop the liquid on your tongue or in a glass of water. They can also be used topically to treat affected areas or to be absorbed via our largest organ, the skin.
