Have I got a treat for you! I recently had a conversation with AC Staubel and Isaac Hill for The Plant Cunning Podcast, and let me say - if you want to have a good listen to get into all kinds of fascinating and exciting nooks and crannies of herbalism, the tastes of herbs and working with them, you will thoroughly enjoy this episode!
This episode - Ep. 126: Meghan Rhodes and Organoleptics and the Seven Tastes - has been released on Spotify and Apple podcasts. You can also watch the interview on YouTube here.
In it, we talk about:
- How I formulate herbal remedies through taste
- Distinguishing different tastes that can feel similar in the mouth and are often confused with each other
- What it means if you're really craving (or have an aversion to) a particular taste
- And plenty of other nuanced herbal details!
In just a few short years, AC and Isaac have created an incredible resource for budding herbalists, plant medicine enthusiasts and practitioners, alike with their Plant Cunning podcast. It doesn't take long to look through their archive of episodes to find absolutely fascinating conversations, including quite a few very well-known and well-loved herbalists.
