Pau d'arco, also known as lapacho, comes from a broadleaf evergreen tree native to the Amazon rainforest. The inner bark of the tree is carefully harvested, dried, and prepared for use as a traditional botanical ingredient. The bark has a mild, woody character and is most commonly prepared as an herbal decoction or infusion. Pau d’arco has a long history of use in regional traditions of South and Central America.

Dried and cut pau d'arco is typically decocted to produce teas, infusions, tinctures and liquid extracts.

Please note: Our cut and sifted pau d'arco is the inner bark of the plant.
