Quality & Sensory

Each batch is gently dried to preserve its pale green to amber color, slightly fibrous texture, and mild vegetal aroma. When brewed, the strips yield a light, faintly bitter infusion with a subtle herbal sweetness; when simmered in soups or congee, they soften and blend quietly into the broth without overpowering other ingredients.
