These delicious tasting teas live up to their promise as healthy beverages.

Fair Trade certification is also offered on many of them. Please note that all of them contain caffeine.

Herbal Teas Mountain Rose Herbs herbal tea blends are caffeine-free and made in small batches to ensure quality, taste, freshness and your enjoyment. We have been making these marvelous herbal tea blends (herbal dietary supplements) for twenty years and we have perfected the art of creating a fine tasting, beneficial tea using fresh, organic and beautiful herbs. We use certified organic herbs (marked with °). If organic is not an option, we use herbs that are sustainably wild-harvested or cultivated without chemicals. If you can’t make your tea right from your garden, you should be aware of the quality you can expect from dried herbs and their different forms. Often the herbs you purchase are dramatically different in appearance, taste and benefit than when they were first picked or harvested. Depending on the methods used to harvest, dry, store and transport the herbs, not to mention the length of time they ‘sit’ in a warehouse, then a store and so on, their quality increasingly diminishes. The larger the pieces of herbs, the less chance for oxidation to occur and the herbs can hold their value better. You ought to be able to see, smell, and recognize the herbs in the blends. Smaller pieces and powdered herbs are in a more unstable form and the potency and freshness is much less than loose-leaf teas. The convenience of tea bags is apparent, yet in order to put the herbs into the bags, they must be cut small enough to fit, so the quality goes down. We offer our tea blends in loose form, using fresh, aromatic, vital herbs and we carry many choices of teamaking utensils; because to us, quality comes first. Tea brewing tools are on pages 13 ~ 15. The beautiful, aromatic loose-leaf herbs are packaged in closeable bags with brewing instructions. Store these Herbal Teas in a cool, dry place, out of direct light. They are best if used within 6 to 8 months of purchase. These tea blends are time-tested formulas and herbal dietary supplements for your wellbeing. We make no health, therapeutic, or nutritive claims. The empirical evidence of the ages speaks for itself. Information, descriptions and products in this catalogue are not intended to treat, cure, prevent or diagnose any disease nor are they intended as prescriptions or therapy in any way.

Bulk Herbs, Spices, Seasonings If you can’t pick it, if you can’t get it fresh or organic within your local community, then we passionately believe that we offer the best dried herbs available! Often the herbs you purchase at a shop are dramatically different in appearance, taste and benefit than when they were first picked or harvested. Depending on the methods used to harvest, dry, store and transport them, not to mention the length of time the herbs ‘sit’ in a warehouse, then a store and so on, their quality has increasingly diminished. At Mountain Rose Herbs, we care deeply, because we are committed to offering you superior quality and because most of us are herbalists, plants-people, cooks and medicine-makers, and because integrity matters.We meticulously inspect all of our materials to bring you an herbal product that is so fresh, colourful and fragrant you can’t help but smile. For colour images, please visit “Bulk Herbs” at our website and click on the camera icon to see current photos of all of our herbs and teas. While we strive to maintain prices, occasionally they are subject to change, as are the countries of origin.

Mountain Rose Guiding Principles ~ Here is some information outlining our philosophy and procedures: Zero Waste below, Organic Sources on page 32 and, Why Organic on page 39. To learn more about our organic standards, procedures and environmental initiatives, please visit our website and look for “About Us”. Photo: Eugene Mayor Kitty Piercy presenting the Sustainability award to us.

Zero Waste

Recycling has become an accepted and normal aspect of everyday life and most businesses practice recycling in some form. Whether it comes from societal pressures, a true desire to save the earth, or a need to enhance their bottom line, the corporate world is reaching out for green ideas to implement into their businesses with great success. But in order to achieve long term successful sustainability, society must grasp the concept of Zero Waste and successfully put it into practice. Zero waste is a philosophy: a new way of thinking about waste. Instead of seeing garbage, waste and landfills as acceptable and integral parts of life, waste is viewed as a resource, commodity and local source of revenue. Where producers, suppliers and manufacturers have to re-think their products (and packaging) in terms of end use. Zero Waste is a practice, where all potential waste is evaluated for full retrieval, recycling and reclamation. Basically…..if it can be recycled, re-directed, composted, salvaged or reintroduced into the production cycle then IT MUST, with no exceptions. Where all purchases must be critically examined so that they do not contribute to waste, and suppliers are encouraged and expected to do the same. In essence, Zero Waste is about getting as close as humanly possible to no waste at all. Zero Waste is dramatic and challenging and we want to see more businesses (and individuals) adopt it as part of their “bottom line”. This transformation away from a “throw away society” by viewing waste or potential waste as a resource is a commitment that Mountain Rose Herbs has long embraced. Any materials which might be regarded as refuse are either recycled, re-used, composted, or brought back into the production cycle. Some examples: office & scrap paper, metal and plastic drums, cardboard, cans, bottles, plastic, steel and wood are salvaged and recycled. Waste oil from our bulk vegetable and carrier oils is collected for bio-diesel salvage (nearly 55 gallons a month), and botanical refuse material is collected for composting at local nurseries (nearly 3000 pounds annually). Electronic and computer components are taken to a local facility for proper salvage and disposal, (preventing several known heavy metal sources from being land-filled). Our packaging materials and paper supplies are derived from post-consumer recycled materials. With 56 employees and the volume and nature of goods we move, we generate less than 100 gallons of landfill waste a month. (The bulk of this is from our bathrooms and kitchen/breakroom.) That’s substantially less than most households, and we constantly work on reducing it further. More info: www.grrn.org/zerowaste/ ... www.ecocycle.org/ZeroWaste/ ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_waste or E Magazine, Green Living Journal and Co-op America, all of which have extensive articles.

Establishing Trust in Organic Sources Overseas products have become a scrutinized subject of late. With the reported problems about products coming from China, it is natural for us to be concerned about what we purchase and bring home to our families. Organic certification lends a magnified process of scrutiny that allows for a greater sense of trust in what we purchase. But not a lot of people outside of the organic industry truly understand the process involved in organic certification and how that translates into purchasing products. Those items that carry the familiar green and white USDA organic stamp must be certified by a third party organization that is accredited with the USDA’s National Organics Program (NOP). Whether a product comes from a domestic source or an international one, strict criteria established by the USDA/NOP must be followed, and companies are inspected annually to ensure that they are producing, handling, processing and packing organic materials within established national organic guidelines. All accredited certifiers throughout the world must follow the same basic guidelines and standards to protect the integrity of the organic trail, and certifying agents ensure this. Inspectors in the field are experienced and knowledgeable in the organic standards of production and handling. They keep meticulous records on what they have observed during an annual performance revue of any organic operation. These observations, along with the auditing of organic plans, pest control records and purchasing records help shape the report that is submitted to the certification body to reflect how a certified organic company is doing in keeping to the NOP standards. These criteria are the same whether applied to an organic processing plant in rural Oregon, or an organic farm in mainland China. The certification of farms goes further. To be certified as an organic farm, the land must’ve been free from substances prohibited by the NOP for a period of three years immediately prior to the harvest of the first organic crop. It also must have distinct, well defined “buffer zones” to prevent unintended contamination from adjoining land that may not be under organic management. The farm must implement a cultivation process that maintains or improves the condition of the soil, manages crop nutrients and soil fertility through approved means (crop rotation etc.) and ensure that neither plant nor animal materials can contribute to the contamination of the crops, soil, or water supply. The use of genetically modified seeds is strictly prohibited. The producer must use organic seeds and planting stock, except when an organically produced variety is not commercially available. NOP standards ban conventional pesticides, petroleum based fertilizers and any synthetic substance not found on the national list. The use of ionizing radiation and sewage sludge are also prohibited in all facets of organic production and handling. In addition to organic standards, there are many criteria that Mountain Rose Herbs considers before sourcing products, and this applies to domestic and overseas vendors. We always consider whether workers are given fair wages and fair market value for the goods they produce and we refuse to carry products that do not meet these standards. We always source certified organic first, but if it is not available we choose a variety that is cultivated without chemicals or wild harvested in a sound and ecological manner. We have strict protocols that must be adhered to by the collector/gatherer so that they protect the ecology from where the plant came from and do not over-harvest the plants from within their bioregion. An affidavit is signed by each wild harvester we purchase from that documents their compliance and understanding of our standards. Mountain Rose Herbs makes periodic trips to the numerous organic farms that we have exclusive contracts with to ensure that the quality we require is being produced at the farm and at the processing plant. All of these details may be investigated in greater detail on the quality control page and on our bulk herb pages at our website. There are a great many concerns in the ever-expanding global marketplace, many of which can be eliminated by knowing and being able to trust those you choose to purchase from. When you choose Mountain Rose Herbs, you can be assured that unrivaled quality is our highest priority. As a certified organic processor through OTCO (a USDA accredited certifying agency) every product we offer with the certified organic seal on it has been inspected, analyzed, monitored and approved as truly organic according to USDA National Organic Program standards and is acceptable for sale as an organic product within the United States. Oregon Tilth Certified Organic (OTCO) is an internationally recognized symbol of organic integrity. The purpose of organic certification is to ensure that the agreed-upon conventions of organic agricultural systems are being practiced not only by growers, but also by all the people who handle and process organic material on its journey to the consumer. In order to accomplish this, OTCO provides a system that combines strict production standards, on-site inspections, and legally binding contracts to protect buyers of organic products.

Herbal Glycerites From Eclectic Institute. Glycerites are liquid herbal extracts that use vegetable glycerin as the extraction menstrum instead of alcohol. Because of this and their almost nectar-like sweetness, they are suitable for children, pets and those with alcohol intolerance or concerns with liver health. They have a shorter shelf life than alcohol extracts; only 1 to 2 years at most. Eclectic first makes an extract of the plant using organic alcohol, then the alcohol is removed (using the Lloyd Extractor invented by master chemist John Uri Lloyd). After this initial extraction, it is combined with kosher vegetable glycerine creating a thick, syrupy and sweet final product. Flavoured with the highest quality essential oils, freshly extracted juices or natural fruit concentrates; effective, tasty, alcohol-free extracts. All have a kosher vegetable glycerine base. Amber glass bottles with instructions; 1oz. with dropper, 4oz. with standard screw top.

Why Organic Long before Mountain Rose, many of us had a passionate and innate commitment to growing our foods and medicines organically, and supporting growers and farmers who believed as we did. I know that I grew up that way; the thought of chemical pesticides and fertilizers just was not the way things should be. In order for the earth to nourish us, it seemed obvious that we needed to respect and nurture the earth in return. I had an instinctual belief in ‘organics’ long before ‘organic’ became a household word or a green marketing buzz word. I grew up in a culture that embraced enhanced food production methods and saw nature to be fully exploited for maximum yield. A connection to the earth and a reverence for plants was seen as, at best, quaint and eccentric. I remember a heavily marketed phrase of the 60s that was a little like ‘better living with chemicals’. Certainly the dedicated work of the 1920s to 1940s was often regarded with derision. From Rudolph Steiner - (biodynamic agriculture, arguably the first comprehensive organic farming system) to Walter James’ Look to the Land and Sir Albert Howard’s The Soil and Health. Yet the ‘movement’ grew and gained momentum and lent support to many for whom the research and information only confirmed what they had always practiced. Lady Eve Balfour’s The Living Soil indirectly gave rise to The Soil Association (now an international soil advocacy group). In the late 1940s J.L.Rodale’s Organic Gardening promoted and popularized the inherent connection between healthy food and soil to the US public. With the release of Rachel Carlson’s Silent Spring in 1962, public awareness and government action to prevent the indiscriminate use of pesticides did begin to materialize. Julie Bailey For more information please visit our website and click on “Support Organic Agriculture”. We urge you to support organic agriculture. It’s not only better for you, but helps support healthy ecosystems worldwide, protects biodiversity and acts to conserve what remains of our beautiful wild lands.

Vegetable and Carrier Oils ~ Vegetable and carrier oils have a plethora of fine uses which include acting as a carrier for therapeutic applications, as an excellent addition to your culinary creations, as a lathering agent for soap, and a binding medium for cosmetics. At Mountain Rose Herbs, we are committed to providing you the most magnificent vegetable oils that are unsurpassed in colour, depth, consistency, essential fatty acids and key nutrients. We have firm procedures in place to ensure you that each oil is screened, analyzed and sampled by our quality control department. All of this is done to protect the very qualities that make the line of oils offered by Mountain Rose Herbs some of the finest. Every vegetable oil we offer is extracted through expeller or cold pressed methods. We do not employ the use of solvent, hexane or alcohol extraction, and we do not stock oils that have been processed through heat-intensive hydraulic extraction. These methods produce relatively unhealthy oils that lack in the qualities we require. The oils we stock have varying degrees of quality and they are processed by different methods. Following is some information to help you understand our line of oils and the entire industry’s methods of extraction. Cold Pressed - Mechanical extraction where heat is reduced and minimized, thus maintaining the oils’ original constituents and depth. Temperatures are rigorously controlled not to exceed 80-90 degrees F (Fahrenheit). Not a practical extraction method for some vegetable oils, but highly regarded as the method of choice. Expeller Pressed - Natural, mechanical extraction and processing, where only a small amount of heat is produced from friction created by hydraulic presses. Usually around 120-200 degrees F. This makes a fine food grade oil and base for bodycare because of its fairly undisturbed molecular state. Refined - Fully processed; exposed to refinement methods that include flash fluctuation in temperatures as high as 450 degrees F and winterization as low as -30 degrees F; deodorization, which removes heavy and/or strong odours; and bleaching, where clays and other mediums alter or remove colour and scent. An economical oil in cosmetics and bodycare, but not the healthiest food grade oil. Partially Refined - Limited processing may include, but is not limited to, deodorization, winterization and natural bleaching. Used to stabilize oils which may go rancid quickly, and to minimize odour and deep colour. Unrefined - Mechanical extraction and screen filtering with no additional refining. Ensures finest quality, best for food and cosmetics. Oil closely retains natural rich aroma, flavour and colour. All of the food grade vegetable and carrier oils offered by Mountain Rose Herbs are Certified OQK Kosher. ° ingredient or product is certified organic by “Oregon Tilth Certified Organic”

Essential Oils ~

Our essential oils have been accurately and scientifically tested to promise you a superior oil, with premium keynotes for the ultimate aroma-therapeutic experience. Gas chromatography analysis and specifications on volatility and integrity are available upon request for many of the essential oils. Considered therapeutic grade according to international standards; suitable for aromatherapy, cosmetics, body-care applications, massage and esoteric use. Obtained from steam-distilled plant material (except the citrus oils which are cold-pressed); all of the essential oils stocked are from recent harvests; with an optimum shelf life of 1 to 2 years. If stored correctly, they will last 4 years or more. Quality, authenticity and purity are our priorities. We strive to maintain prices, though occasionally they are subject to change, as are the countries of origin and nuances of a particular aroma. Weather, harvesting methods and timing, geography and politics all may affect quality and availability. Visit our website for detailed profiles & descriptions on all of our essential oils. Essential oils require a large amount of plant material to produce: from approximately 10 lbs of lavender to more than 300 lbs of rose petals just to make an ounce of essential oil. Essential oils contain hundreds of constituents and they are incredibly concentrated and strong. Because of their intense concentration, essential oils should be kept in a safe place; out of reach of children, the elderly and pets. Avoid contact with mucous membranes and/or eyes. Always use essential oils with caution and ensure that adequate ventilation is available; inhalation or prolonged exposure to essential oils may cause dizziness, nausea and headaches. Learn about an essential oil before you use it; research its uses, benefits and cautions (with at least three different professional, educated and reliable sources). Only use essential oils by the drop and dilute in a “carrier’’ oil such as jojoba, almond or soybean, or in distilled water. Prior to using any undiluted essential oils - even ones that you don’t think are skin irritants - put a drop on your inner wrist and cover. If any irritation results, bathe with cold water and do not use. A few essential oils are suitable for culinary use, but for safety we do not recommend their use internally and we label them accordingly. The hydrosols and flower waters are highly recommended, since they have similar properties to essential oils, but in far less concentration. OG - Organic. Grown, harvested and processed without the use of pesticides, chemical fertilizers, herbicides, GMO’s, synthetic chemicals or growth agents. All organic oils are certified through OTCO, a USDA accredited third party certification agency. (Certificates available upon request.) W - Gathered from their natural environment, such as woodlands, forests, deserts etc. Transported to other facilities for distillation. C - Cultivated and/or processed through conventional farming methods, considered farm grown. While many essential oil plants are grown organically, processing & distilling is less controllable and cross-contamination with non-organic material may occur. This is the case for some of the C oils. Our essential oils are sent to you in 1/2 oz. (15 ml.) & 1 oz. (30 ml.) amber glass bottles with standard “drop by drop” reducers for easy application. Please note 1/8 oz. and 1/4 oz. are in amber glass bottles with a standard screw cap. Our larger sizes (4 oz. & 16 oz.) come in amber glass bottles with a standard screw top lid. We are unable to accept returns on these larger sizes. None of the statements in this catalogue have been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. None of the products in this catalogue are intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, neither is it our intention to prescribe any course of therapy.

Precious Oils and Absolutes All of our precious oils (listed at the top of the page) are true essential oils. The absolutes (listed at the base of the page) are not true essential oils; they are extracted with a solvent, usually alcohol or other hydrocarbons, e.g. hexane. With some of the most striking scents on earth, the absolutes are wonderful ingredients in perfumes and body care, but they are not generally used in aromatherapy. The precious essential oils and the absolutes are packaged in amber glass bottles with standard screw top lids. Name Cautions Latin

Flower Waters (Hydrosols) ~ Hydrosols, also known as floral waters, hydroflorates, flower waters or distillates, are produced from steam-distilling plant materials. Hydrosols have similar properties to essential oils but are much less concentrated. Unlike their “essential oil added to water” counterparts, true steam-distilled hydrosols contain all the beneficial components that whole plant materials have to offer. Hydrosols are usually a by-product of essential oil production, but the highest quality comes from devoted distillers who, with artist-like precision steam the floral and plant material strictly to produce hydrosol (the hydrosols offered by Mountain Rose Herbs are produced in this fashion). Distilled in stainless steel and processed through certified organic methods in the USA and Europe, hydrosols contain all of the essence of the plant in every drop, just like essential oils but in a milder form; making them suitable for all manner of applications where essential oils would be too strong. In most hydrosols there is less than 5% actual essential oil. Please note that the aromas are mostly mild and subtle, sometimes bright and fragrant, and most hydrosols have an herby and/or grassy note indicative of their authentic and therapeutic properties. Highly recommended and a safer, economical and more ecological alternative to essential oils. Wonderful as a facial splash, body perfume, deodorant or air freshener. Cool a hot flash, change your mood and add them to lotions and creams. 4oz. flower waters come in a glass bottle with a mister top, 8 oz. and 16 oz. bulk sizes are in plastic bottles, without misters.
