Willow trees are closely associated with waterways, wetlands and cool temperate landscapes. Several Salix species grow naturally or are cultivated across the Himalayan region, making willow an important part of the local landscape. Willow has also attracted considerable historical interest because its bark contains salicin, a naturally occurring compound that is chemically related to the history of aspirin.
Willow bark has a long history of traditional use in different cultures. Herbal preparations made from willow bark have traditionally been associated with relief from occasional aches and discomfort. However, willow bark is pharmacologically active and should not be treated as an ordinary caffeine-free beverage.
Our Willow Tea offering is intended for people interested in traditional herbal preparations, botanical products and Kashmir's plant heritage. Product information should clearly identify the willow species and plant part used, because different Salix species can vary in their chemical composition.
