There are many grades of herbs, as any adept of Dionysus can tell you the best wines that have the depth of the soil or real tea men that know of the the high mountain oolongs. So many choice herbals from ginseng to the finest incenses and smokes have a quality about them that tells the story of the lands and care in which they are grown and the masters that process them. Our love of the truly fermented products of the old cultures takes our research into the land of the wandering nomads, into the Scythian forests and the mountains of Russia. Snorri Sturluson and other Old Norse writers called Russia “Greater Sweden” and referred to these regions as the home of the tribes of Odin. We discuss this in our Hyperborean Research Society Vol. 1 monograph on the history of the Indo-European migrations of the Aesir. This is available in our shop for those seeking to study the traditions that converge into Ancient European Northern Traditions. We put immense effort into these products and writings, and herbalism is our life, religion, passion and business as well. We strive to bring the absolute best quality offerings and research and we are so excited to bring the most holy, sacred and healing herbs from the lands of the Gods.

Returning to the tea so rich in the essence of the sky and apex of mountains. This drink goes back millennia of use amongst the Old Russian cultures of the Ural and Altai mountains, and is a blessed drink to the shamans and folk alike, and written of by the old Russian royalty as superior to the Asian teas to their tastes. This is a tea with history for stimulating health, conjuring up a familiar taste to any who drink it. It is written deep within the human experience, this flavor so reminiscent of an ancient homeland and of ancestral mountains. Some herbs are full of poetry, they infuse the water with ancient verses and visions of the bluest skies. On those pristine, wind-swept peaks, far from the red dust of the world, the herbs that nurtured humanity cling to the mineral rich soils, fed upon rivulets of arctic spring waters.

It is such a refreshing and invigroting drink mostly unknown outside of dedicated enthusiasts. It is one of those harmonzing, balancing drinks that times perfectly with any moment in the day from a boost in the morning to calming at night.
