How does it feel?
Couch grass decoction is a dark golden brown colour. It smells sweet, rich, slightly salty, sour, citrusy and tangy, with an aroma that resembles a cake being baked or pasta boiling. The taste matches the smell, as it is slightly sweet but also salty and vaguely earthy. Initially, it feels really moist and hydrating in the mouth, as a result of polysaccharides, but leaves a dry, tacky sensation on the tongue, from the volatile oils.
There is a slightly sour and acrid aftertaste in the throat, indicating the presence of some saponins. It feels heavy and nourishing as it moves down through the body, giving a sensation of grounding into the earth. It feels opening and relaxing, with a sense of slowing down. There is an opening of the lungs and a clearing of secretions, suggesting an expectorant action. Overall, couch grass is a pleasant decoction, which feels nourishing, grounding, expansive, clearing and soothing.
