What is Cascara Sagrada?

Cascara Sagrada (Rhamnus purshiana) is a species of buckthorn native to western North America, from southern British Columbia to California and eastward to Montana.

The dried bark of Rhamnus purshiana has been used for many years by both Pacific Northwest native peoples and later settlers. Commercially it is known as Cascara Sagrada, which translates from Spanish as “sacred bark.”
