Golden Silk Chrysanthemum Tea (Chrysanthemum morifolium) — Huangshan Whole-Flower Herbal Tea, 15g Jar

Golden Silk Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium), known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Jīn Sī Huáng Jú (金丝黄菊), is the sun-dried whole flower head of a revered flowering herb grown in the misty highlands of Huangshan, Anhui. Also called Yellow Emperor Chrysanthemum (大黄皇菊), each bloom is large, golden, and complete — one flower steeps one full cup. Its nature is sweet, slightly cold, and gently clearing, making it a classic flower tea for cooling, brightening, and soothing the senses.

Traditional Uses

In folk herbal practice, chrysanthemum flowers are steeped as a daily tea to clear heat, brighten the eyes, and settle the spirit. Golden Silk Chrysanthemum is often brewed one bloom at a time in a tall glass, letting the flower open fully as it steeps. It is commonly paired with goji berry, honeysuckle, or rock sugar in seasonal infusions, and in autumn it is a favorite flower for soothing dryness and easing the eyes after long hours of reading or screen work.
