Jetpackkratom's Gold Liquid Extract makes it easier, and more convenient to consume a precise dose of this mystical herb with every use.

That's comparable to 8g of powdered leaves.
Say you're stocking a shelf from scratch. Most people start with one loose herb for the teapot, one extract for when they don't feel like brewing, and one capsule format for convenience. That's a sensible split, because the format changes everything about how you handle the thing. Loose herb means a kettle, a strainer and twenty minutes. Extracts and tinctures skip the kitchen entirely. Capsules skip the taste, which for some of these herbs is the whole point.
Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is the biggest name on this shelf and the one we get asked about most. We carry it as plain Kanna, Kanna Extreme, Nano Kanna, Nano Kanna Extreme, a Kanna 10x Extract, and Kanna Extract UC2. The differences are concentration and processing: the Nano versions are milled finer, the 10x is a concentrated extract, and UC2 is a separate extraction route again. If you have only ever handled the standard fermented leaf, the extracts are a completely different physical product, dark, fine and dense in the hand rather than loose and shredded.
Blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea) comes as dried whole flowers or as a 15x tincture in a dropper bottle. The dried flowers are papery and fragile, and they smell faintly sweet straight out of the bag, more like dried hay with perfume than a strong herb. Kratom sits alongside it: Jetpackkratom GOLD and SILVER liquid extracts, GOLD capsules, Maeng Da powder, and Kratom Bali 15x. Species, format and strength are all we'll say about kratom, and the labels carry the rest.
These are the dried herbs shoppers reach for most, sold loose by weight.
Also by weight: valerian (Valeriana officinalis), lemon balm (Melissa officinalis), lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), hops flowers (Humulus lupulus), catnip (Nepeta cataria), wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), scutellaria, prickly poppy (Argemone mexicana), Mexican tarragon (Tagetes lucida), ashwagandha, passionflower 10x (Passiflora incarnata), klip dagga (Leonotis nepetifolia), Leonotis leonurus flowers and its 20x extract, plus marihuanilla (Leonurus sibiricus) as herb and 25x extract.
Our own food supplement blends live here too: Natural Relax, Relax-E, Heavenly-E, Recover-E, L-Tryptophan with B6, 5-HTP and GABA, plus MoodMaster by Mindscopic and the StressLess oral spray by Foodsporen. Food supplements aren't a replacement for a varied diet, and the label dose is the dose, we don't add advice on top of it. Watch out for the obvious: if you like the ritual of brewing something, a capsule won't scratch that itch at all. Go loose herb instead.
Two Trip Stopper products and Blind Spot 3000 sit on this shelf as small boxed kits. Trip Stopper is a kit of dissolving Dextro tablets plus Valeriaan capsules, with the routine printed on the pack, and it keeps best in a cool, dry, dark place out of reach of children. The Zamnesia ear plugs come in four types (Dream, Zen and Travel at SNR26, Music/Party at SNR20) and they're the thing festival regulars reorder every summer. Palo Santo incense sticks round it off. If you want just one thing to start with, take the 50g chamomile: the flowers are ready in minutes.
Trip Stopper is a small kit that pairs dissolving Dextro tablets with Valeriaan capsules in one pack. The routine and the daily dose are printed on the packaging, and we don't give dosing advice beyond what's stated there. Store it somewhere cool, dry, and dark, out of reach of children, and skip it if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18.
All three are Sceletium tortuosum, the difference is processing and concentration. Kanna Extreme and the 10x Extract are concentrated versions of the plant material, while the Nano and Nano Kanna Extreme versions are milled much finer. Kanna Extract UC2 uses a different extraction route again, so it's a separate product rather than a stronger version of the same one.
Both. We stock dried whole Nymphaea caerulea flowers, which are papery and faintly sweet-smelling, and a 15x blue lotus tincture in a dropper bottle. The flowers are the traditional format, the tincture is the one to grab if you'd rather not deal with loose petals.
No. Maconha brava is a Brazilian folk name for Zornia latifolia, a plant in the legume family, and we stock it as a 20 gram dried herb. It's botanically unrelated to cannabis, the shared nickname is just naming tradition.
