{"product_id":"koymaria-apoxiramena-fylla","title":"Strawberry Tree – Dried Leaves (Arbutus unedo)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eStrawberry Tree – Dried Leaves\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eArbutus unedo\u003c\/em\u003e) consists of dried leaves with an astringent, earthy and distinctly Mediterranean character. At Spices Bazaar, it is presented based on its actual form, available botanical identification and responsible use. Traditional references are not turned into therapeutic promises. As a natural raw material, it may show normal variations in color, cut and aroma intensity between batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStrawberry Tree – Dried Leaves – identity and form\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe botanical name \u003cem\u003eArbutus unedo\u003c\/em\u003e helps distinguish this product from related plants and similar common names. It is available as dried leaves. We do not assume a country of origin, variety, species or concentration of natural constituents beyond what is documented for the batch. The full label is especially important when safe use depends on correct identification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCharacter and practical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe profile is astringent, earthy and distinctly Mediterranean. The strawberry tree is a characteristic Mediterranean shrub. The dried leaves are a different raw material from the fruit and are not presented as a treatment for urinary conditions, diabetes or any other ailment. The form affects how it is used: whole leaf, root, powder, seed or woody material do not behave the same way. Where the product is intended for food use, follow the labeling for the specific batch and do not automatically apply instructions for a different form of the same plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdentification before use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith herbs, the common name alone is not always sufficient. Different species may look alike or be sold under similar names, while some related plants do not have the same safety profile. That is why we prioritize the Latin name, the plant part used and the stated intended use of the batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality and proper handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNatural raw materials are not perfectly uniform in the way industrial products are. Harvest season, drying and storage affect the color and aroma. Use a clean, dry utensil, close the package immediately and do not put wet product back inside. If transferring it to a jar, keep the original label with it and do not mix different batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated product in the catalog\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor comparison, see \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/arktostafylos-apoxiramena-fylla\"\u003eBearberry – Dried Leaves\u003c\/a\u003e. The related product is not a substitute. It may differ in species, plant part, form, intended use or concentration. Comparing products helps you make a more informed choice and avoid the common pitfall of assuming two products are the same because they look similar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA little Spices Bazaar tip\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWrite the opening date and the product’s full name on the container, not just a shortened common name. In a large herb collection, this small detail reduces mistakes, helps with proper stock rotation and allows you to make a genuine comparison between different deliveries without losing track of the raw material’s identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStorage and precautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep tightly closed in a cool, dry, dark place, away from moisture, heat and strong odors. During pregnancy or breastfeeding, or in the case of kidney disease or medication use, seek professional advice before regular internal use. Traditional use does not replace medical assessment.\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, recommendations and inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spices Bazaar","offers":[{"title":"50 g","offer_id":54895956853063,"sku":"SB-HER-56883-050","price":3.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 g","offer_id":54895956885831,"sku":"SB-HER-56883-100","price":4.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 g","offer_id":54895956918599,"sku":"SB-HER-56883-500","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 g","offer_id":54895956951367,"sku":"SB-HER-56883-1K","price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/1805\/5751\/files\/koumaria-arbutus-unedo-katopsi-spices-bazaar.webp?v=1793051229","url":"https:\/\/spices-bazaar-2.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/koymaria-apoxiramena-fylla","provider":"Spices Bazaar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
