        Dragon’s Blood – the red sap of the Amazon

        Dragon’s Blood (Sangre de Drago, also called Sangre de Grado) is a dark red resin from the Croton lechleri tree, which grows deep in the rainforests of Peru. The tree produces it naturally to seal its own wounds.

        For centuries Indigenous communities have regarded it as one of the most remarkable gifts of the Amazon. We offer 100% pure sap, collected by hand from wild trees.

        The tree

        A tree that bleeds red

        Croton lechleri is a tall tree of the Amazonian forests of Peru and Ecuador. When its bark is scored, a thick sap the colour of blood slowly seeps out – and this is how the resin got its name.

        The sap is rich in natural plant compounds, including:

        Alkaloids (incl. taspine)FlavonoidsDiterpenesPolyphenols

        These are descriptions of composition and tradition, not claims about effects.

        Harvest and sustainability

        Gently scored, never felled

        The resin is collected by hand by local Indigenous communities, with great respect for nature.

        The bark is only gently scored, so the sap can drip out and be collected. This slow, meticulous method keeps the resin pure and leaves the tree alive.

        In the traditional knowledge of Peru and Ecuador, Sangre de Drago holds a special place. Communities have passed down their relationship with the tree from generation to generation, treating it with respect as a living part of the forest.
