Product Overview
Harvested at peak potency (typically after 2-3 years of growth), our Organic Echinacea Purpurea Root Tea Cut is a foundational botanical ingredient for premium herbal formulations. Sourced from 100% NOP/EU Organic certified farms, the raw Echinacea roots are thoroughly washed, gently dried, and precisely cut into uniform “Tea Cut” sizes (e.g., 2-8mm or 4-10 mesh).
Rich in active echinacosides and polysaccharides, our Echinacea root is carefully processed to be free from dust, sand, and foreign matter, making it the ideal choice for high-end tea blends and holistic wellness products.
