Bitter Wood, known botanically as Quassia amara, is one of the most bitter plants on earth — and in the Caribbean, that's exactly why people reach for it. This herb has been used in Caribbean households for generations, brewed as a traditional bitter tea that's become a ritual for many families across the islands.
The bitterness is the point — Quassia amara is one of those herbs that's been passed down through Caribbean families as part of their herbal kitchen traditions.
