We can prepare tincture, glycerite, or 1:1 fluid extract of any readily available herb on request
All of our tinctures are produced using raw materials of consistent high quality. These are then macerated
for a minimum of two weeks in naturally fermented ethanol and water. No heat, additives, preservatives or
colourings are used in the process. The concentration of these tinctures generally exceed BHP specification
by 30%. Organic tinctures are produced from organically grown herbs. Fluid extracts are made without the
use of concentrates. There is no heat* used in any part of the process and consequently the heat sensitive
components of the plant such as glycosides, saponins and essential oils remain intact, maintaining the
natural constituents and aroma of the plant. Random HPLC (High Pressure Liquid Chromatography - with
diode array detection and peak purity analysis) tests are performed on finished products to test for purity
and marker compounds
* This may exclude BP/BPC standards which can require heat during manufacture to comply with the
relevant pharmacopoeia
Always seek professional medical advice before using any herbal product, especially if you are already
taking medication
Sale of some tinctures in the UK is restricted under the the Medicines (retail Sale or Supply of Herbal
Remedies) Order 1977
