White Sage | Salvia apiana

🌱 Overview:
Pale, silvery-green leaves with a soft, velvety texture and deep, grounding aroma. Whole white sage carries a powerful presence — crisp, earthy, and unmistakably sacred.

🍽 Uses:
Rarely used in culinary traditions; instead, white sage is traditionally bundled and burned in ceremonial practices, or steeped gently in infusions and spiritual blends.

✨ Lore & Myth:
Held sacred by Indigenous communities of the American Southwest, white sage has long been used for cleansing, prayer, and protection. Its smoke is said to carry intentions skyward and clear away lingering spirits.

🌍 Origin & Sourcing:
Ethically wild-harvested in the arid regions of California and carefully dried to preserve their shape, fragrance, and traditional integrity.

🧭 Notes:
Earthy, crisp, and camphorous, with a clarifying scent that lingers like desert wind through canyon stone.
