Description

Apricot Kernels (Prunus armeniaca) are the dried seeds of the apricot tree, known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Xìng Rén (杏仁). Revered for centuries as a food-herb (药食同源) ingredient, apricot kernels have been prized as a moistening, qi-descending, and Lung-supporting herb, traditionally used to ease coughs, soothe the throat, and support smooth breathing. The peeled kernels offered here are sweet-neutral in nature, gentle yet effective for moistening the Lungs, descending qi, and harmonizing the digestive system.

Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully sun-dried and peeled to preserve its creamy ivory color, smooth rounded shape, and mild nutty aroma. The kernels feel firm and dry to the touch, with a clean, uniform appearance. When simmered or brewed, they soften and release a gentle, subtly sweet and nutty flavor with a smooth, slightly oily mouthfeel, adding richness to broths and teas without overpowering other ingredients.
