Anise Myrtle

Warndu Anise Myrtle is the most perfect substitute for any liquorice in both sweet and savoury dishes. Dried and ground, ready for your use at home.

This rainforests species has leaves with strong liquorice and aniseed flavours. Also known as aniseed myrtle or ringwood, it is found naturally in the subtropical rainforests of northern New South Wales. Anise myrtle leaf is one of the highest sources of the compound anethole, which gives it the aniseed flavour and aroma, and you will see when you use it at home.  

Australian Native Anise Myrtle comes dried and ground from whole leaf.

We love Anise Myrtle! It features heavily in our assortment of gift packs, or try it as a delicious tea infusion with Quandong & Anise Myrtle Loose Leaf Tea or our blended Wild Chai Latte. 

Our products are all made in Australia from 100% locally sourced, seasonal and wild harvested produce.

Warndu means good in the Adnyamathanha language. 

Our mission is to REGENERATE culture, community, tradition, health and our soils. Every product we make includes one or more Australian Native ingredients. 

In our efforts to be zero waste and plastic free, and with the changes to recycling in Australia, we will be phasing out all plastic bags. For now you may receive your spices, teas and home products in either black, white or clear plastic, and once that is all gone our amazing new compostable plant-based packaging will be what you will receive products in.
Thanks for your patience and understanding whilst we endeavour to tread lightly on your yarta (land).

To maintain Warndu taste we keep smaller quantities on hand of our Australian Natives, it takes us a little while to dry, roast or grind them to make. We aim to send all orders within ten days of receiving them.
