Lemongrass is known for its uplifting citrus scent and healthful properties. Our lemongrass, Cymbopogon citratus, is organically cultivated in subtropical climates. It is traditionally used as a spice in Thai and Indian dishes. Dried lemongrass imparts subtle citrus notes to herbal tea blends, body care creations, culinary dishes, and can be steeped as lemongrass tea. With its lemony scent and hint of rose aroma, lemongrass is an essential ingredient in Thai and Indonesian cooking. Universally used within tea blends for its flavor and aroma.
