Tulsi Holy Basil

Tulsi Holy Basil – Traditional Ayurvedic Herbal Tea

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 — it's actually part of the mint family. Widely consumed throughout India (much more than coffee!), tulsi is so cherished that many families grow their own plants at home. Fresh and fragrant, tulsi is not only a delicious herbal tea but also a wonderful ingredient in blends.

Our Tulsi Holy Basil is the Vana variety — pure, and grown and harvested in the traditional manner in India. It has been a traditional ingredient in Ayurvedic blends for centuries and is cherished for its fresh, distinctive flavor.
