Botanical name: Quercus alba

^Organic

White oak bark, derived from the Quercus alba tree, is a deciduous hardwood that belongs to the Fagaceae family. This tree is native to North America and thrives in a variety of habitats, including forests and woodlands, often found in well-drained soils. White oak bark is characterized by its light grayish-brown color and deeply furrowed texture, which becomes more pronounced as the tree matures.

In herbal medicine, white oak bark has been traditionally valued for its astringent properties, often used to support digestive health and skin conditions. The inner bark can be prepared as a tea, tincture, or poultice, offering a slightly bitter flavor. Historically, it has been used for its potential benefits in treating wounds and gastrointestinal issues.*
