Description

Huang Jing Zi (Vitex negundo) are the dried ripe fruit seeds of a traditional food herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Huáng Jīng Zǐ (黄荆子). Also called Negundo Chastetree Fruit and known regionally as Mu Jing Zi, Huang Zi, or Bu Jing Zi, this small-seeded herb has been prized for centuries as a wind-dispelling, phlegm-resolving, and qi-regulating botanical used in teas, decoctions, and seasonal wellness formulas. Its nature is warm, pungent, and slightly bitter, making it a gently dispersing herb traditionally associated with soothing the Lungs, easing the chest, and supporting comfortable breathing.

Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully cleaned and dried to preserve its small, rounded seed form, warm brown color, and dry, slightly rough texture. The seeds carry a mild, earthy aroma with a faintly pungent note. When decocted or steeped, they yield a light amber infusion with a gentle, subtly bitter and warming taste that softens when paired with jujube or honey.
