🌱

Vegan, gluten- and lactose-free

From plants grown wild or organically. Free from additives, acidity regulators and preservatives.

Rosemary grows wild along the Mediterranean coasts; its Latin name "ros marinus" means "dew of the sea". Maté is known from South America, where the leaves of a holly relative are drunk from a gourd. Motherwort and shepherd's purse, on the other hand, are old plants of native cottage gardens and wayside verges. Common broom, finally, owes its name to the flexible twigs once bound into brooms.

The five plants are combined with yeast and water, fermented and distilled in several steps. Each plant is processed separately and only brought together into the finished essence at the end. The method comes from alchemy, which Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim, known as Paracelsus, understood in the 16th century as a way of preparing plants. Gold-making was never his concern.

Paracelsus lived for a time in Salzburg and died there in 1541. Espara is also based in Salzburg and follows his principles with its alchemical essences. The Mediterranean, South America and the native wayside: this blend unites plants from three worlds.

What are alchemical essences in the tradition of Paracelsus?

Paracelsus (1493–1541) understood alchemy not as gold-making, but as a method of preparing plants. His idea: a plant has, in his words, a body, a spirit and a soul. These three components are separated during preparation, processed individually, and then brought back together. The result is an aromatic, alcohol-based liquid.

Why is rosemary called "dew of the sea"?

The shrub likes to grow near the coast, where morning mist drifts in from the sea over the slopes. Its blue flowers then look as if covered in dew. That is where the Latin name "ros marinus" comes from. A 30-ml bottle lasts roughly 17 days at two doses a day; traditionally a course of 3 to 6 weeks is recommended.

⚠️ Mandatory information: Food supplements are not a substitute for a balanced diet, and the recommended daily intake should not be exceeded. A varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are essential. Keep out of reach of small children. Not suitable for children. Contains alcohol (16% vol), not suitable for anyone who needs to avoid alcohol. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication, please seek medical advice before use.

📦 Storage: Store in a dry place at room temperature, protected from light and out of reach of small children. Keep away from heat.

💬 Frequently asked questions

How do I take the Rosemary essence?+

15 drops twice a day before meals, either directly under the tongue or with a little water. The alchemical tradition recommends avoiding a metal spoon; glass, ceramic or wood is the customary choice. If you prefer spraying to dropping, there is the Espara throat spray for alchemical essences.
How long can I take the essence?+

Alchemical essences are traditionally taken as a course of about 6 weeks, with a minimum of 3 weeks. For longer-term use, or if you have an existing condition or take ongoing medication, please consult your doctor.
The essence contains alcohol. Who should avoid it?+

The essence has 16% vol alcohol, produced during fermentation and distillation. It is therefore not suitable for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or anyone who needs to avoid alcohol. People with a history of alcohol dependency should also avoid it, as even small amounts can trigger relapse.
What does the rosemary essence taste like?+

Fresh and spicy from the rosemary, with a slightly bitter note from maté and herbs and the warmth of the alcohol. If you prefer it milder, add the drops to a glass of water.
Can I combine the essence with other supplements?+

As a rule, yes. From the Espara range, Espara Ginseng-Jelly Royale Elixir is a popular choice, and Espara Korea Ginseng Essence as a second essence.
Who was Paracelsus, and why does he matter for this essence?+

Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim, known as Paracelsus (1493–1541), was a physician, alchemist and natural philosopher. He lived for a time in Salzburg and died there in 1541. For him, body, spirit and soul formed a whole. The alchemical tradition this essence draws on follows his inherited principles. More on the tradition: Preparation and use of Essences.
