Cat's Claw Bark

Cat’s Claw Bark is a traditional botanical sourced from the tropical vine Uncaria tomentosa, native to South and Central America. Its earthy flavour and fibrous texture make it a distinctive ingredient for herbal teas and botanical blends.

With a long history of use in South American herbal traditions, the dried bark is commonly prepared by gently simmering it in water to create a herbal decoction.
