Jamaican Sarsaparilla Root (Smilax ornata / Smilax officinale)

Sarsaparilla (Smilax ornata / Smilax officinale) is one of Jamaica's most historically rich and celebrated herbs. Originally introduced to the island by the Spanish, who brought it from Central America, this thorny plant with long fibrous roots has been deeply woven into Jamaican herbal tradition for centuries. It remains one of the most sought-after wellness herbs on the island today.

Natural Pearls of Jamaica sources our Sarsaparilla Root from the pristine hills of St. Catherine, where it is wild-crafted and hand-harvested in small batches. Free from pesticides, harmful chemicals, and fertilizers, each batch is carefully cleaned, washed, and air-dried to preserve its natural integrity.

I’ve really been enjoying this Icelandic Moss herbal tea. The flavor is mild, earthy, and not too bitter, and it feels very soothing on a dry, irritated throat. I like to drink it in the evening with a little honey, and it’s become my go-to tea when I feel like I’m coming down with something. The quality of the dried moss is clean and fragrant, with no dust or debris.

Product came well packaged and also resealable. I tried in a tea, as expected the taste is rather earthy. I’m currently making a tincture with it. Keep in mind it expands as the product gets rehydrated.

I originally ordered this Iceland Moss tea for myself because I had been dealing with a persistent cough for quite a long time. Along with my regular treatment, I decided to add herbal support after a friend recommended it. It has been helping her family, so I wanted to try it as well.

After using this tea consistently for about a week, I noticed a clear difference. In terms of effectiveness, it helped soothe my throat and made coughing less uncomfortable, especially during the day. For me, it worked well as a supportive herbal tea alongside my usual routine. The taste is herbal and slightly bitter — tolerable for me, but it may not be very pleasant for everyone.

The size of the package is good and lasts a while with regular use. The herbs arrived fresh, with a natural smell and clean appearance, which was important to me.

Later, my kids got sick as well, and they also drank this tea. We did not experience any allergic reactions, which was a big plus for our family. Overall, we had a positive experience and I would consider ordering it again as a gentle herbal option during cold season.
