Product Identity and Overview
Soursop leaves are the leaf ingredient of Annona muricata, also known as graviola, guanábana, corossol and guyabano. Whole leaves make visual inspection possible; milling changes the handling format without changing the plant part. Keep leaf specifications separate from edible fruit pulp, seeds and concentrated extracts.
Botanical identity: Annona muricata L.
Plant part: Leaves
Country of origin: Sri Lanka
Available Forms and Specifications
Whole dried leaves
For visible loose-leaf presentation, repacking and botanical processing. Agree the acceptable proportion of broken leaves and stems.
Tea-cut leaves
For blending and tea-bag filling. Set cut size, dust tolerance and extraction requirements against a sample.
Leaf powder
Milled leaf material for permitted botanical formulations. Specify particle size and handling performance; it is not fruit powder or a concentrated extract.
Final dimensions, cut or particle size, moisture, shelf life and test limits are agreed in the product specification. Ask for the available COA and a representative sample; this page does not assign unverified numerical grades to a lot.
Sri Lankan Sourcing and Origin
Known locally as katu anoda, soursop is part of Sri Lanka’s tropical botanical landscape. Leafy Ceylon connects selected leaf sourcing with drying, form preparation and export packing. Made in Sri Lanka: request origin and lot information with your commercial specification rather than relying on the common name alone.
Harvesting and Processing
Suitable leaves are selected, cleaned and prepared, then dried and inspected. Whole-leaf orders are sorted for presentation; tea-cut orders are cut to the agreed range; powder orders are milled and sieved before packing. Drying and milling parameters should follow the agreed lot specification. Request current batch photographs when comparing colour, breakage or powder fineness.

Quality, Certifications and Documentation
For leaves and powder, agree botanical identity, plant part, moisture or water activity, foreign matter, microbiological criteria and relevant pesticide/heavy-metal testing. Ask for the existing Bureau Veritas soursop sample report and its sample identity, date and test scope. Historical sample results are not release results for every later lot.
GMP, ISO 22000 and HACCP: request current company documentation and confirm the applicable site, product and process scope. FDA registration: request the relevant facility details where applicable; registration is not FDA product approval. Commercial invoice, packing list, origin evidence and phytosanitary or other export documents are discussed according to the shipment and destination.
Commercial Applications
Herbal tea and infusion brands
Whole leaves or tea-cut material can be evaluated for lawful infusion ranges. Check flavour, brewing behaviour and the intended market’s ingredient requirements.
Botanical ingredient manufacturers
Leaf powder offers a format for blending and further processing. Manufacturers must assess the safety and permitted use of their specific finished preparation.
Distributors and private-label businesses
Compare loose leaves, portioned tea formats and ingredient packs using a common identity and quality brief.
Product Characteristics and Practical Considerations
Colour and leaf integrity are useful purchasing indicators, but cannot establish safety by themselves. Published testing of commercial soursop leaf products found variability in quality and constituents. Soursop preparations also raise safety questions, including acetogenins, so traditional use is not evidence of a safe dose or disease treatment. Confirm your formulation and destination requirements with an appropriately qualified reviewer. Store sealed, dry and away from light and strong odours.
Bulk Packaging and Private-Label Options
Whole leaves need protective outer packing to limit breakage; tea-cut and powder need sealed, moisture-protective food-grade packs. Existing private-label options include loose-leaf pouches, 50 g packs and 25 tea-bag formats, subject to order confirmation. Agree fill weight, labels and carton configuration before production.
Why Choose Leafy Ceylon for Soursop Leaves?
A single sourcing discussion can compare visual whole-leaf quality with tea-cut and milled performance. Leafy Ceylon’s existing soursop range includes loose leaves and private-label formats, so product preparation and packing can be considered together. Use an agreed reference sample and current documents to judge the offer.
Samples, MOQ, Lead Time and Repeat Supply
Ask for the exact format you will purchase. For powder, evaluate fineness and dispersion; for whole leaves, assess colour, breakage and packing. MOQ, sample charges, production timing and repeat-order quantities are confirmed in the current quotation. Retain the approved sample and specification for subsequent lots.
International Shipping and Order Process
For soursop leaves, begin with the form, quantity, application, packing and destination. We review the specification and quote the product, documentation, preparation time and delivery options. Approve the sample where required, confirm the order, then proceed to preparation, packing and dispatch.
Courier options such as DHL or FedEx can be discussed for samples and suitable smaller consignments. Air cargo and sea freight depend on volume, route and timing. Confirm import permissions, required documents, freight terms and the delivery estimate before dispatch; no universal transit time is promised.
Global Markets and Buyer Communities
The following are product-relevant prospective audiences. Cultural familiarity and research context do not establish confirmed Leafy Ceylon customers or sales in every country.
Spanish-speaking and Brazilian trade
Botanical importers using hojas de guanábana or folhas de graviola can enquire for whole leaves, cut material or powder. Specify the leaf plant part to distinguish this range from fruit ingredients.
French-speaking and Caribbean businesses
Feuilles de corossol is useful French purchasing terminology. We welcome specialist distributors serving French-speaking and Caribbean customers in France, Canada, the USA and elsewhere; this is a potential audience, not a claim of established sales.
Filipino and wider international botanical buyers
Guyabano is a familiar Philippine name. Tea brands and botanical businesses serving these audiences can send a leaf-specific brief. Buyers elsewhere are equally welcome; local names should accompany the botanical identity.
Businesses in other markets are welcome to enquire. Share your local product name, intended use and required form so we can assess the brief accurately.

Soursop Leaves: Frequently Asked Questions
No. Leaf powder is milled leaf material. Fruit powder is made from the edible fruit portion and belongs to our separate soursop fruit range.
No. Milling is not extraction or standardisation. Specify the preparation required and do not substitute one for another.
Only use claims supported by the applicable evidence. A not-detected result concerns the listed substances and detection limits in a particular sample.
Share identity and safety requirements where appropriate, but add form-specific limits such as breakage, dust and particle size.
Request tea-cut leaves for a filling trial and specify your filter material and fill weight. Check particle retention, dust, infusion appearance and flavour. A whole-leaf sample alone does not establish how the tea-cut material will run on your equipment.
Ask for separately identified samples of each form, with their lot references and available specifications. Assess leaf appearance and breakage separately from powder fineness. Confirm sample quantities, charges and dispatch arrangements before ordering.
Request the botanical name, leaf plant part, form, lot or sample reference, test date, methods and results for the agreed checks. Establish whether the report covers the offered lot or an earlier sample before using it for purchasing approval.
The current quotation confirms the minimum for each form and packing option. Send the trial quantity and expected repeat volume separately, particularly when comparing bulk leaf supply with buyer-branded packs.
Provide the leaf form, net weight, preferred pouch or tea-pack format, label language and destination. Request confirmation of feasible packing and artwork requirements. Approve the ingredient identity and pack sample before authorising the full run.
Send the destination country and postcode, required form, net quantity and delivery target. Whole leaves and powder can pack differently, so request the proposed carton dimensions and gross weight with the freight quote.
Yes, make document review part of the order brief. List the documents your importer requires, including any origin, phytosanitary or testing requests, so availability, scope, cost and timing can be confirmed before dispatch.
State the minimum remaining shelf life needed on arrival and request supporting product and packing information. Agree storage instructions and lot dating for the actual form; do not transfer a shelf-life figure from another supplier’s product.
