The cultivation areas stretch from the hills and mountains of Oberaagau and Emmental-famed for their acidic, deep soils and high precipitation--to the shallower, drier soils of the Jura Mountains. These regions provide a perfect growing environment for the diverse palette of herbs used in Ricola formulas. From seed to sprout to spring and beyond, each herb receives the tender care it needs to thrive. Fresh herbs are extremely sensitive, and overly long journeys can sap away their aroma and special characteristics. That’s why Ricola drops are made exclusively in Switzerland, close to the regions where the herbs are grown. Each herb is assessed on the field for its freshness, color, aroma, and purity. The herbs are then transported to the herb center in Laufen, where they undergo a special extraction process that strengthens their beneficial active ingredients. Finally, the herb mass is boiled, cooled, and molded into a palate-pleasing drop. Founded in Laufen, Switzerland, Ricola has been manufacturing some of the world’s most innovative herb cough drops since 1930. Today, Ricola produces a wide variety of herb drops and teas that are enjoyed all over the world. True to the beliefs of its founder, nature enthusiast and baker Emil Richterich, Ricola maintains a deep respect for the Earth and a staunch belief in the power of traditional Swiss herbalism. And though the company has expanded its reach and embraced modern technology, Ricola remains a small town, family-owned business with a steadfast devotion to tradition.
