Torstol is the highest level herb, which requires level 75 Herblore to clean and yields 15 experience. Torstol can be grown in herb patches at level 85 Farming with a torstol seed.

Obtaining torstol herbs may be difficult as they are only rarely dropped by monsters. They can be obtained by Farming, looting nature implings, or rarely as drops from Zulrah and the Kalphite Queen. They can also be obtained in their grimy form from the Sinister chest, Skotizo, Cerberus, and the Chambers of Xeric. To create a Zamorak brew, you need to add the cleaned herb to a vial of water to create a torstol potion (unf), and then add jangerberries.

According to the book Gielinor's flora - herbs, the name comes from torst, an old Fremennik word meaning "thirsty". This refers to the plant's need for a lot of water, and as such is often found growing near rivers and ponds.

A torstol may also be given to the Dr Jekyll random event in exchange for a Stamina potion(4).

Trivia

  • The supposed old Fremennik word for "thirsty", torst, was likely derived from the word for "thirst" in the Scandinavian languages: Danish and Norwegian tørst and Swedish törst.
