Chive Seed Goji Tea Jiu Cai Zi Gou Qi 50 Teabags Hot Brewed Herbal Blend 250g

Chive Seed Goji Tea, known in TCM as Jiu Cai Zi Gou Qi (韭菜子枸杞茶), combines roasted chive seeds (Allium tuberosum) with goji berries (Lycium barbarum). In TCM theory, chive seed is warm and pungent-sweet and enters the kidney and liver channels, while goji is sweet and neutral. Traditionally associated with daily kidney-supportive tonics, this blend is offered as convenient individual teabags for hot brewing. It is a food-grade herbal tea, not a medicine.

Quality & Sensory

The roasted chive seeds typically appear small, flat, and dark brown-black with a toasty, nutty aroma, while goji berries are deep red and slightly chewy. Hot brewing typically yields an amber-toned infusion with a mild, roasted-seed character and a gentle natural sweetness from the goji.

Goji berry (Gou Qi Zi) is a classic tonic herb traditionally linked to nourishing liver and kidney. The two are commonly combined in daily teas and wine infusions, especially during colder seasons as a warming tonic drink.
