Cape Town · Est. 2023

A modern wellness apothecary.

Tinctures, capsules and single-active powders, alongside the mushroom range we began with. Measured doses, honest labels and nothing added to make the tin look fuller.

Our thinking

Less, but properly made.

An apothecary is not a shelf of promises. It is a small, well-kept cabinet where every jar earns its place. We work with a short list of actives, publish the dose, test every batch and leave the rest out.

Some of what we make is modern. Some of it has been used in southern Africa for centuries. All of it is measured the same way.
