Mexican Herbs Cuachalalate Seca Palo 2 oz and similar items

Cuachalalate is a medicinal plant that hails from Mexico where it is also called Cuachalala, volador, palo santo, cascara, and its scientific name Amphipterygium adstringens. This tree grows in tropical forests and has flowers that bloom between July and August. Following the blooming season, the tree bears fruit until January. The male and female trees do look different and produce distinct flowers, and in some instances they grow in separate regions. However, the tree is not known for its fruit, and it is the bark that is often sought for medicinal purposes. It is said to have a mild flavor when steeped into a tea, and some even say it has a deep, chocolate flavor that makes for a delicious brew.
