Pirts Tea
The Pirts tea is expertly formulated by a renowned Phytotherapy Doctor in Latvia, who has applied his extensive knowledge and experience in plant medicine to create a blend designed to support Pirts.
The herbs and plants used in the tea are all grown onsite in Latvia’s natural meadows and forests, as well as sourced from local eco farms. The team there meticulously handpick the herbs required for the tea and delivers them to the factory.
Here, a specialized machine chops the leaves and suitable branches into small pieces, ensuring that every part of the collected herb is used. This process aligns with our philosophy of supporting nature and only taking what is needed.
After chopping, the herbs are carefully dried and then blended with other herbs in a precise formula crafted for the specific purpose of the tea.
The Pirts tea combines herbs that stimulate sweating, aid in body purification, and promote a restorative effect. This tea also supports hydration before and after the treatment, ensuring that lost fluids are replenished.
The natural herbs (see ingredients below) provide a fresh taste that complements the Pirts experience, especially when served in the Pirts Spirt clay cups.
