IN THIS TOGETHER
Our bloodline runs deep with makers of medicine & students of plant intelligence. Our heritage calls us to create, and together we answer. We create remedies made to support your body physically, mentally & energetically- using only ingredients that grow in the wild. Intentional products that care for you & create space to care for others.
Because we are all in this together.
TRUSTING PLANTS SINCE 1850
Our Tinctures, Mists & Salves engage the various systems to treat the body in harmony. First established in 1850 Amsterdam, the holistic approach of the original Cleban apothecary remains at the heart of our line today.
OUR REMEDIES
Rooted in plant-medicine & amplified by energetics. Designed to work holistically with you.
DAUGHTERS OF HERITAGE
Cleban & Daughters is one generation in a long-standing heritage of healers. Sisters Roxane & Liana spent their summers above their Opa’s apothecary, not realizing the influence those childhood moments would have.
Liana went on to accumulate several degrees, including a Masters in Business before discovering her heart’s work in Herbalism. As Chief Formulator she artfully crafts potent formulations with an East meets West style befitting to her upbringing.
Inspired by the meaning the apothecary held to its community of devoted customers, Roxane dreamt of running a shop just like her Opas'. After several years of working in retail, she is doing just that.
BORN IN AMSTERDAM
Cleban was founded by Michel Cleban in 1850 Amsterdam as a “drogisterij,” loosely translated as “apothecary.” A century later our grandfather was given a job as a clerk, the shopkeeper being a distant relative. Twenty years later he took ownership, working alongside his son for years before passing the apothecary onto him.
We remember it as a place of community & healing, where you would find elixirs & salves, vitamins & supplements, and be treated to a salty dropje (Dutch licorice) on your way out.
CRAFTED IN CALIFORNIA
Ten years after the founding apothecary in Amsterdam closed its doors, Cleban & Daughters launched in the Golden State of California. In a commitment to sustainability every step in our manufacturing process is California based. Abundant agriculture here provides access to high quality ingredients. We are blessed with a masterful community of resources- herbalists, practitioners & manufacturers who help bring our creations to life.
