Holy Basil is probably the closest ingredient we have to traditional tea (its not though, it’s a herb). There are three different varieties of Holy Basil with different (of course) flavor profiles. We use all three because I like the complexity of flavor the trio imparts to our blends and you get the spectrum of health benefits. Rama’s flavor is spicy and clove like whereas Vana’s flavor is sweet and anise like and last but not least, Krishna’s flavor is crisp and peppery. When all three are mixed together their flavors sing.
Traditionally Holy Basil is used in Ayurvedic Medicine as an adaptogen. Holy Basil helps counter the damage of life’s stresses to the internal body (supports body system functioning) and helps with stress and anxiety.
Holy Basil is one of the reasons why you feel so good after a cup of Hug in a Mug.
