Xinhui Chenpi (Citrus reticulata 'Chachi') is the sun-dried, aged peel of the Chachi tangerine, known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Chén Pí (陈皮). This 10-year aged batch comes from Dongjia, the most revered core production area of Xinhui, Guangdong, and is graded as Da Hong Pi (大红皮), the fully ripened red peel prized for its depth and sweetness. Its nature is warm, pungent, and bitter-sweet, making it a classic herb for regulating qi, drying dampness, and harmonizing the Middle Burner.

Quality & Sensory

Each piece shows the deep amber-to-chestnut color and leathery, slightly curled texture characteristic of well-aged Da Hong Pi. The surface carries a fine, dense oil-dot texture and a warm, citrusy aroma layered with notes of aged wood and dried orange blossom. When brewed or simmered, it yields a clear golden-amber infusion with a smooth, sweet-then-slightly-bitter taste and a lingering fragrant finish that softens with each steeping.

Traditional Uses

In folk herbal practice, Xinhui Chenpi is decocted into soups, teas, and congee to regulate qi, dry dampness, and support digestion. It is a staple in Cantonese slow-cooked soups, where it is paired with ingredients like ginger, jujube, and lean meat. As a daily tea, it is brewed alone or blended with pu-erh, chrysanthemum, or hawthorn for a warm, aromatic infusion. Aged peels are also treasured in longevity formulas and seasonal tonics, and are often stored for years as a household wellness staple.
