    Aswan: Honoring the Ancient Art of Tinctures

    Tinctures are time-honored herbal extracts made by soaking plant materials in alcohol (or other solvents), capturing their full potency and spirit. Rooted in ancient traditions from Egypt to Europe, tinctures offer a simple, powerful way to incorporate plant medicine into daily life. Just a few drops deliver concentrated benefits—whether taken under the tongue or added to tea. At Aswan, we honor this ancient craft with mindful preparation, ethical sourcing, and soulful intention, ensuring that every bottle carries both the wisdom of the earth and the grace of your wellness journey.
