Description
What is it
Kandankathiri (Solanum virginianum) is a low, spiny herb with violet flowers and round, striped berries that ripen to yellow. Ayurveda knows it as Kantakari, ‘the thorny one’.
It is one of the ten roots of Dashamoola, and Siddha and Ayurveda value it for respiratory and seasonal wellness. Our tea is made from the dried herb.
What Makes This Different
- Whole plant only. Made from kandankathiri whole plant alone, nothing else.
- Thorns handled for you. Cleaned carefully before drying.
- Naturally caffeine-free. Pure herb, with no tea leaves, flavourings or sweeteners.
What It Does
- A classical respiratory herb. Valued for respiratory and seasonal wellness.
- One of the famous ten. Part of Ayurveda’s Dashamoola group.
The Thorny One
