Organic Whole Chamomile Flowers
Mountain Rose Herbs provides whole, intact chamomile flowers rather than the 'fannings' found in tea bags. This preserves the volatile oils within the flower head, resulting in a significantly more potent sedative and anti-inflammatory effect.
Quality & Materials
100% Organic Matricaria recutita. Sourced from small-scale organic farms with a focus on sustainable harvesting.
Evidence & Testing
The brand maintains an in-house laboratory for identity testing (HPTLC) and microbial analysis. Chamomile's efficacy for sleep is supported by numerous clinical trials.
Brand Transparency
Unrivaled transparency regarding harvest dates and origin. They provide a 'Certificate of Analysis' upon request for bulk lots.
Value Assessment
Exceptional value when purchased in bulk (1lb bags). Even with the need for a separate infuser, the cost per cup of high-potency tea is lower than mid-range bagged options.
Why Not Alternatives?
Traditional tea bags contain pulverized herbs that oxidize quickly, losing their medicinal potency. By selling in bulk and focusing on whole-flower integrity, Mountain Rose ensures a level of freshness and essential oil retention that pre-bagged teas cannot match.
