Valerian Root (cut) (per 100g)

Dried cut valerian root with a deep, earthy aroma and a bold, woody flavour. A traditional loose herb for home brewing, best enjoyed in the evening as a caffeine-free infusion.

How to brew

• Add 1 teaspoon of cut valerian root to a cup or infuser.
• Pour over freshly boiled water and cover while it steeps.
• Steep for 3–5 minutes — longer for a stronger brew.
• Strain well before serving.

The flavour is naturally robust. If you find it too strong, reduce the amount rather than the steeping time. It blends well with milder herbs such as chamomile or lemon balm.

Safety information

Valerian root may increase drowsiness and can interact with sedative medicines, including barbiturates and benzodiazepines. Avoid long-term or high-dose use without professional guidance. Not suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medication without seeking advice first.

Please note that we are the retailer, not the manufacturer of the products we sell.

We work hard to keep our product information accurate and up to date. However, manufacturers may occasionally change ingredients, descriptions, or production practices without notifying us. We recommend always checking the product label upon receipt.

For loose products, if you require a specific country of origin or best before date, please contact us before placing your order.

We cannot guarantee the accuracy of ingredient, allergen, or nutritional information provided, and we cannot be held liable for any adverse reactions caused by the products.

Allergen Information

As a bulk foods store, despite maintaining a Five-Star Food Hygiene rating, the presence of allergens cannot be fully eliminated. Sacks of products containing allergens are opened and closed daily as we scoop and refill our shop dispensers. We use separate scoops for each product and store each product in its own container or original sack — however, products containing allergens are not stored or packed in a self-contained area.

This means all products may contain traces of allergens due to cross-contamination.

Where a product is indicated as free from a particular allergen, this means it has not been formulated from or wholly derived from that ingredient. Allergen handling procedures are in place throughout our supply chain to minimise the risk of cross-contamination, but this cannot be guaranteed.

If you have a severe food allergy, please contact us before ordering so we can advise whether our products are suitable for you.

If you are unsure whether a product is suitable for your allergy, please contact us before purchasing.
