Specially designed for individuals seeking a pure, non-alcoholic daily protocol, this formulation utilizes an ultra-pure organic vegetable glycerine base to extract and preserve Mullein's delicate mucilage, iridoid glycosides, and saponin complexes.

The menstruum is first acoustically extracted across a 1kg batch of Bulgarian Mullein leaf. This rich, active liquid extract is then immediately reclaimed and fused across a second 1kg batch of fresh Mullein leaf.
