1. Herbal collection “Drink of the Giant”
In old times in order to select warriors for the army, the Litvins duke would go to hunt a bison with them. The encounter with the horned king of the forest was dangerous and fearful. Only the best warriors would get out of the fight with the beast alive. Men were to drink special herbal tea before the hunting, it gave them strength for their bodies and the spirit to fight.

Since the ancient times people have harvested herbs on Kupalle (Midsummer), believing them to possess their greatest power. Such plants became amulets for our ancestors. With their help, they fought the forces of evil, cleared space and human destiny, healed the most serious diseases, and practiced magic. This herbal collection was harvested on the energetically powerful day of the summer solstice. They are collected with careful hands, good wishes and the light, that will shine to all of you. Reach out and touch the mystery of the ancient celebration and be filled with the force of nature. "Oj, rana" is a ritual Kupalle song.
