Elderflower Tincture
This tincture was made with elderflowers (Sambucus nigra) grown in our regenerative organic nursery, which is surrounded by hundreds of acres of forest.
It was extracted in 190 proof organic cane alcohol provided by The Organic Alchohol Co. out of Ashland Oregon.
The flowers were tinctured fresh just moments after harvesting and allowed to extract for a minimum of six weeks in a BPA-free glass vessel.
