Product Overview
Jiao Gu Lan, also known as Five-Leaf Gynostemma, is a time-honored botanical widely enjoyed in traditional East Asian tea culture.
Often referred to as “Southern Ginseng” in folk tradition, it is appreciated for its smooth, slightly bittersweet taste and its notable presence in classic herbal tea rituals.
Our Certified Organic Jiao Gu Lan is hand-harvested, shade-dried, and carefully processed to retain its natural green color, clean aroma, and delicate leaf structure. It serves as a staple ingredient for traditional tea practices and modern herbal kitchens alike.
