You’re walking down a beautiful southern country road on a lazy Sunday afternoon. The cool breeze lightly kisses your skin as it combats the heat from the blazing sun.

Cinchona and its Product--Quinine The bark of cinchona produces several alkaloids. The most important alkaloid, quinine, has certain febrifuge properties.
