The botanical name listed is Verbascum thapsus. Product details note mullein is native to Europe and Asia, and at least one origin is specified as Albania.
Mullein tea is described as mild and soothing. Product descriptions also highlight the plant's large, velvety leaves and a generally subtle, gentle flavor.
Some listings carry organic certification such as USDA Organic or Certified Organic by QAI. At least one product description also notes the product is non-irradiated.
Typical instructions advise placing a tea bag in a cup, adding about 250 ml of freshly boiled water, covering and steeping 10–15 minutes (noting that a longer steep releases more mucilage and active components), then straining through a very fine strainer or cheesecloth to remove leaf hairs. Honey, lemon, or ginger are suggested as optional flavorings.
Age guidance varies between listings: some specify 'Suggested Age: Adult' or 'Adult Use Only,' while others state 'All Ages.' Common warnings advise consulting a doctor if you have a medical condition and include 'Keep out of reach of children' on some labels.
