Chinchona pubescens
Origin: Mexico Format: bark in flakes
The chinchona tree, originally from Peru, earned its name in history thanks to the active ingredients in its bark, which were able to defeat malaria when it began to afflict Europe from the 17th century onwards. The Jesuits were the first to bring this bark to the old continent, while in Peru its properties were already known. You can read an interesting article about its history at this link. When malaria was no longer a concern, chinchona found its use in the preparation of liqueurs and syrups. Its particularly bitter taste makes it an excellent digestive.
The chinchona bark is also used in the world of bartenders for preparing syrups to create the most unique cocktails. Chinchona bark is one of the barks available for sale online that terza luna offers as spices for bartenders.
