Part Used: Leaves of Sassafras albidum

Description: Sassafras Leaves C/S are produced from the dried foliage of Sassafras albidum, a deciduous tree native to eastern North America. The tree grows naturally in well-drained soils, often along riverbanks and woodland edges, reaching heights of 15–20 meters. It yields aromatic, lobed leaves with a distinct, smooth texture, and small yellow-green flowers appear in spring, leading to the formation of blue-black berries that highlight the plant’s seasonal cycle.

Leaves are harvested at full maturity to ensure optimal size, texture, and colour consistency. Mature sassafras leaves are bright to medium green with three distinct lobes on most leaves, though variations occur. Collection focuses on intact leaves that retain their natural surface characteristics and structural integrity, which is important for cut-and-sifted processing.

Once harvesting is done, the leaves are gently cleaned to remove stems, dust, and debris. Drying is perfomred using controlled air or low-temperature methods to stabilise moisture while maintaining the leaves’ natural colour and texture. Once dried, the leaves are cut and sifted into uniform pieces, resulting in a clean, free-flowing product that retains the botanical identity of Sassafras albidum.

The finished Sassafras Leaves C/S product consists of cut leaf fragments with a consistent green tone and visible leaf vein structure. The cut-and-sifted format supports easy handling, accurate measurement, and uniform blending. The leaves retain their aromatic and visual properties, making them suitable for wide range of applications.

Uses: Sassafras Leaves C/S are used in tea-style infusions, herbal blends, and aromatic preparations where whole leaf fragments are desired. They are suitable for decorative arrangements, craft projects, and educational botanical collections. The cut leaves are also employed in formulation and manufacturing processes that require uniform, identifiable dried foliage.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place in a sealed container.
