Ejiao Blocks (Equus asinus Colla Corii Asini) — Shandong Donkey-Hide Gelatin for OEM & Custom Herbal Gifts

Ejiao Blocks (Colla Corii Asini) are the dried gelatin blocks rendered from donkey hide, known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Ē Jiāo (阿胶). Revered for centuries as a premier blood-nourishing and yin-supporting tonic, Ejiao has been prized as one of the most treasured animal-derived food herbs in Chinese wellness culture, traditionally used to enrich blood, nourish yin, moisten dryness, and support the complexion. Its nature is sweet and neutral, making it a gentle yet deeply nourishing ingredient for long-term seasonal tonics. This listing is an OEM and private-label customization link from a Shandong Dong'e heritage-style Ejiao factory, offering bulk Ejiao blocks and Ejiao slices for brand partners, gift channels, and wellness product lines.

Quality & Sensory

Each block is slowly simmered and set to preserve its deep amber-brown color, glossy surface, and firm yet slightly translucent texture. When held to light, the edges show a warm honeyed glow. The aroma is mild and faintly gelatinous, with a subtle, clean scent characteristic of well-rendered donkey-hide gelatin. When dissolved in warm water or simmered into a tonic, it yields a smooth, silky liquid with a gentle, mildly sweet and neutral taste that blends easily with jujube, goji berry, and other tonic ingredients.
