About Chuchuhuasi
This bag holds only the bark, wild-harvested, then dried and ground with nothing added. More than one tree is sold under this name, so check the botanical name: ours is Maytenus krukovii, also listed as Maytenus macrocarpa.
Our Chuchuhuasi Extract is made from the same bark. For the tea, the ground bark is simmered rather than steeped, so give it the full 20 minutes in a covered pan and let it settle before you pour. More in our Chuchuhuasi herb guide.
