Blessed Thistle C/S Herbs 2oz

Blessed Thistle (Cnicus Benedictus) 2oz - C/S

Blessed Thistle is potent aid in healing magic, purification and hex breaking.

Blessed thistle also known as holy thistle and Saint Benedict thistle, this Mediterranean native once provided hope for victims of the bubonic plague and served as a rejuvenating tonic for Benedictine monks. Reputedly, one monk, Don Bernardo Vincelli, created a stimulating concoction that included more than two dozen herbs, blessed thistle among them. Today, blessed thistle still lends its flavor to Benedictine liquor (although the complete recipe is a closely guarded secret). The herb is also enjoyed in digestive tea blends and herbal bitters.

Also Called: Holy Thistle and St. Benedict Thistle
