Spearmint (Hierbabuena) is a refreshing aromatic leaf traditionally used throughout the Caribbean and herbal traditions worldwide as a gentle digestive and nervous system ally.
Rich in natural aromatic compounds such as carvone and rosmarinic acid, Spearmint has been traditionally used to support comfortable digestion, ease occasional bloating, and promote a sense of lightness after meals. Unlike stronger mints, it is considered gentler and more suitable for daily use and sensitive constitutions.
It also offers a soft calming effect on the nervous system, supporting mental clarity and relaxation without heaviness or sedation.
Handcrafted and packaged in Puerto Rico.
