Description

Ba Yue Zha (Akebia trifoliata), also known as Yù Zhī Zǐ (预知子) and nicknamed 'August Split' (八月炸), is the dried mature fruit of a traditional food-herb vine prized in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as a soothing, qi-moving botanical. Its nature is bitter and slightly cold, entering the Liver, Stomach, and Bladder channels, where it has long been valued for smoothing the flow of Liver qi, easing the middle burner, and supporting gentle internal balance. This sulfur-free, hand-cleaned batch is sourced from Anhui and offered as a food agricultural product for daily tea and decoction use.

Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully sun-dried and sorted to preserve the fruit's deep brownish-purple color, wrinkled yet plump texture, and faintly sweet, earthy aroma. When decocted, the fruit softens and yields a mild, slightly bitter infusion with a gentle sweetness on the finish, leaving a clean, smooth mouthfeel without harshness.
