Description

Botanical name: Gentiana lutea

Gentian root, also referred to as Yellow Gentian, Bitterwort and Devil’s Taint, is a European native herb once used in beer brewing like hops.

Gentian is a featured ingredient in traditional herbal bitters, most notably the Angostura Bitters produced in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. Since the formula is only known to a few people still living, you’ll have to experiment with our dried gentian root to make your own herbal bitters and tea blends.
