The Helmet-Flowered Herb: Skullcap (Scutellaria galericulata)

Skullcap gets its name from its flowers. The calyx of each bloom forms a small, helmet-shaped cup, a detail so distinctive it gave rise to both the common name and the Latin epithet galericulata, from the Latin for a small cap or hood. The plant belongs to the Lamiaceae family, the same mint family as lavender and rosemary, and grows wild across Europe and North America in wet habitats: marshes, stream banks, and damp meadows. The aerial parts, leaves and flowering tops, are harvested and dried for use. This 50g pack contains the shredded dried herb.

How to Use Skullcap

The most straightforward way to use dried skullcap is as a loose-leaf tea infusion. Add the shredded herb to hot water and allow it to steep. The taste is notably bitter, scutellarin, a glycoside constituent of the species, contributes that characteristic sharpness. It is worth knowing before your first cup: this is not a mild, chamomile-style infusion. If bitterness is a concern, blending it with a milder herb can help balance the flavour.

    interessante Alternative zu tabak und auch als Tee nicht schlecht
    Habs für Tee, als Tabak-ersatz und für den Vaporizer gekauft. Es kann für alle 3 benutzt werden und ist recht angenehm. Eine besondere Wirkung habe ich nicht festgestellt in den kleinen Mengen die ich verwendet habe. Zum mixen mit anderem Tee-sorten oder Canabis im Joint/Vaporizer ganz gut

    Geschmackssache - Taste It
    Für mich (Generation X) eine gute Alternative mit wenig Eigengeschmack und angenehmen Geruch - jedoch kein Tabakersatz. Die erste Testrolle war Pur, Helmkraut mit Runtz Automatic (Zamnesia Seeds, feminisiert) - leckere hightere Süßigkeit! Im Gegensatz zu Tabak empfand ich ein leichtes kratzen im Hals und musste gelegentlich Husten. Die zweite Testrolle im 1:1 Mix aus Helmkraut und Tabak "ohne Zusatzstoffe" war perfekt. Fazit: Wie alles bleibt es Geschmackssache, dennoch würde ich das Helmkraut empfehlen zu testen.

    Guter Tabakersatz
    Hat beim Eigengeschmack lediglich ganz leichte Anflüge von Tee, ist aber ein sehr guter und sonst neutraler Ersatz für Tabak
