How, when, where and why were these treatments ever developed? What is so special about Jamu and how has Jamu been perfected over the years?
Centuries ago the royalty of Indonesia asked their traditional healers to create natural plant based remedies and treatments not only for medicinal purposes, but also for beauty, spa and ceremonial rituals. Using a then unrecorded (and sometimes closely guarded) secretive combination of herbs, fruit and flowers the healers created blends which kept the skin healthy, extended youthfulness, prevented illness, detoxified the body for overall health and wellbeing and treated a wide range of ailments ranging from general fatigue to stomach aches to skin conditions and immunity boosters to fight off the onset of seasonal health complaints including colds and flus.
Over time Jamu became a daily preventative drink taken not only by the ruling class, but by almost everyone across the vast archipelago of Indonesia with Jamu production being guarded as family secrets passed down generation to generation and finding the recipes and answers through modern research being a near impossible task. Only in the 1940s with Indonesian government cooperation with the medical community did traditional healers finally open up their secrets for scientific studies to be conducted. The findings were a revolutionary discovery for Indonesia as the herbal Jamu mixes were found to be more effective than their western equivalents.
These discoveries in the Forties hold true to today in Indonesia, with regional blends of Jamu still produced traditionally by small families and consumed mostly in liquid form in local communities. Until now it’s been virtually impossible for people outside of Indonesia to enjoy the health benefits of drinking Jamu without high levels of added unnatural preservatives. In 2020 The Jamu Group found the solution to bring an authentically organic and delicious taste of Balinese Jamu to the world in powder form. 100% organic, non GEO, vegan friendly and packed full of daily goodness to help you live a better, healthier Jamu life!

about us
Founded in mid 2020 by a small team of expatriates and local producers and farmers on the island of Bali, Indonesia, The Jamu Group came into existence as a response to the developing Coronavirus 19 pandemic. With Bali locked down and inaccessible to international tourists (and for a few months to anyone within the archipelago of Indonesia too!) and after having been poorly with symptoms of C19 ourselves the team at The Jamu Group turned to the extraordinary health benefits of locally produced Jamu.
After a few weeks of drinking Jamu on a daily basis we started to feel the positive health effects of the all organic blend of natural herbs, spices and fruits. We decided it was the perfect time to introduce Jamu to the world and set about forming a group of farmers and local producers to refine the traditional liquid form of Jamu into a concentrated powder that loses none of its amazing nutritional goodness. In November of 2020 we started production of Jamu with five original blends to help you detox, sleep better, gain more immunity to natural ailments, increase your energy levels and add a healthier balance to your daily life.
The Jamu Group is proud to be the first and original producer and exporter of Jamu to the world, welcome to the real taste of traditional Jamu, welcome to a better healthier Jamu life!
