{"product_id":"apsithia-artemisia-apoxirameni","title":"Wormwood – Dried Artemisia","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWormwood – Dried Artemisia – Artemisia absinthium\u003c\/strong\u003e consists of dried aerial parts with a very bitter, intensely aromatic, herbal character. As a natural raw material, slight variations in color, cut, size and aroma intensity are to be expected from batch to batch. At Spices Bazaar, we emphasize authentic botanical identity and practical use, without turning a plant’s traditional uses into unsupported therapeutic claims.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWormwood – Dried Artemisia – identity and form\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe botanical reference \u003cem\u003eArtemisia absinthium\u003c\/em\u003e is important, especially when related species or similar common names exist. The product is sold as dried aerial parts. Drying removes much of the plant’s natural moisture and makes the material more brittle. As a result, there may be smaller pieces or a little natural plant powder without this changing the product’s identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAroma, taste and practical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe aromatic profile is very bitter, intensely aromatic and herbal. Wormwood is a plant with a strong flavor and chemical profile and may contain thujone. It is not treated as an ordinary everyday tea, and we do not provide general home-use dosage instructions for internal use. The intensity is affected by the harvest season, cut and storage. For recurring recipes or blends, it is preferable to weigh the quantity and keep notes rather than estimate the ratio by eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDried herb and other commercial forms\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA dried plant is not equivalent to a capsule, standardized extract, tincture or essential oil. The concentration of natural constituents and the method of use may vary significantly. For this reason, we do not carry over dosages, warnings or claims from one form to another. The labeling for the specific batch remains the primary source for its intended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality and proper handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe do not assess quality solely by how green or uniform a dried product looks. Natural raw material may darken, break apart or contain different proportions of larger and smaller pieces. What matters is clear identity, proper drying, protection from moisture and keeping the batch traceable. Always use a clean, dry spoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated product in the catalog\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo compare it with another form or a related botanical raw material, see \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/apsithia-matso\"\u003eWormwood – Bunch\u003c\/a\u003e. The link is for navigation, not to suggest that one product can replace the other. Each form has a different cut, concentration, use and specific precautions that should be taken into account.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA little Spices Bazaar secret\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you open a new batch, compare its aroma and appearance with the previous one, but do not expect absolute uniformity as you would with an industrial fragrance. Keep the original label, do not mix batches and note the date you opened it. This helps you organize both home and professional use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStorage and precautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore tightly sealed in a cool, dry, dark place, away from moisture, steam and strong odors. Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and take particular care if you have a history of seizures or are taking medication. Do not use without appropriate supervision or for an extended period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover more flavors, aromas and stories from around the world.\u003c\/strong\u003e Follow Spices Bazaar on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/www.SpicesBazaar.gr\"\u003eFacebook\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@Aiodigoseyexias\"\u003eYouTube\u003c\/a\u003e for new arrivals, suggestions and inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spices Bazaar","offers":[{"title":"50 g","offer_id":54895928213831,"sku":"SB-HER-40076-050","price":1.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 g","offer_id":54895928246599,"sku":"SB-HER-40076-100","price":3.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 g","offer_id":54895928279367,"sku":"SB-HER-40076-500","price":16.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 g","offer_id":54895928312135,"sku":"SB-HER-40076-1K","price":32.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/1805\/5751\/files\/spicesbazaar-apsithia-apoxirameni.webp?v=1788987702","url":"https:\/\/spices-bazaar-2.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/apsithia-artemisia-apoxirameni","provider":"Spices Bazaar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
