Description
Botanical Name: Ocimum sanctum
Tulsi, also known as Holy Basil, holds a unique place in Ayurvedic and cultural traditions, where it is regarded as both a sacred plant and a daily food botanical. Used for centuries across the Indian subcontinent, tulsi was traditionally incorporated into everyday routines as a powdered leaf, infusion or paste rather than reserved for occasional use.
Spice Zen’s certified organic Tulsi Powder is made from carefully harvested leaves that are gently dried and finely milled to preserve their natural green colour, aroma and character. The powder has a softly herbaceous, slightly peppery flavour with subtle clove-like warmth, making it suitable for regular inclusion in drinks, food and daily rituals.
This finely milled form allows tulsi to be easily blended into warm water, milk alternatives, smoothies or simple foods, reflecting its long-standing role as a kitchen and household botanical rather than a specialist supplement.

Ayurvedic Tradition
In Ayurveda, tulsi is traditionally regarded as a tridoshic plant, appreciated for its balancing nature across Vata, Pitta and Kapha when used mindfully.
In Ayurvedic tradition, tulsi has long been appreciated for its protective and cleansing qualities. It is historically described as a botanical that supports the body’s natural resilience, particularly during seasonal transitions. Tulsi was commonly used in household preparations when people were mindful of environmental exposure, changing weather or general wellbeing.
Traditional texts and folk practices often refer to tulsi as having naturally purifying, warming and clarifying properties. Its long-standing use reflects cultural recognition of its role in everyday immune awareness and internal balance, rather than as a targeted remedy.
As with many Ayurvedic botanicals, tulsi was valued most when used consistently in small amounts as part of daily life.
