★★★★★Loved by the garden regulars
Whole seed, small, hard and quietly nutty. Grown clean, dried whole, and kept apart so it steeps to exactly itself.

About the herb
Marked with milk.
Cut in flower and dried whole, leaf and stem together. Milk thistle is taken as a course after a heavy stretch rather than by the occasional cup, and the white veining on the leaves is what gave the plant its name.
Properly bitter, green and dry, and the bitterness is the whole point. The Sunday that follows a good Saturday. It helps cleanse the system.
