Description:

Sappan Wood, known in Tamil as Padhimugam, comes from the Caesalpinia sappan tree—a small, thorny tree native to South and Southeast Asia. Its heartwood has been traditionally valued for its ability to color water a beautiful reddish hue when boiled and is commonly used as an herbal infusion in several Asian cultures.

The wood is often prepared as a refreshing herbal drink, especially in warm climates. It’s traditionally used in wellness practices and daily routines for its natural qualities and is known for its slightly bitter taste and aromatic presence.
