Meet Paw Paw Leaf (Carica papaya) — the clean, herbaceous, slightly bitter leaf long appreciated in traditional wellness practices across tropical regions. Dried paw paw leaf carries a distinctive green aroma, subtle earthy notes, and a grounding character that makes it ideal for herbal teas, wellness brews, and botanical blends crafted for balance and restoration.
When simmered or steeped, paw paw leaf produces a warm, green-amber infusion with a crisp herbal taste — not sweet, not floral, but refreshingly straightforward. This is a leaf for people who prefer their wellness teas earthy, uncluttered and honest.
