Ginseng, Goji & Deer Antler Velvet Wine-Soaking Herb Blend — 100-Ingredient TCM Infusion Kit

This Wine-Soaking Herb Blend (泡酒料) is a curated collection of food-herb (药食同源) botanicals and traditional tonic ingredients assembled for at-home herbal wine infusion. The blend centers on Ren Shen (Panax ginseng, 人参), Gou Qi Zi (Lycium barbarum, 枸杞), and Lu Rong (Cervus nippon deer antler velvet, 鹿茸), three of the most revered ingredients in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for supporting vitality, nourishing essence, and warming the body's yang energy. In TCM, ginseng is sweet, slightly bitter, and slightly warm, entering the Spleen, Lung, and Heart channels to powerfully tonify qi; goji berry is sweet and neutral, entering the Liver and Kidney channels to nourish blood and essence; deer antler velvet is sweet, salty, and warm, entering the Kidney and Liver channels to warm and reinforce yang. Together they form a classic warming, qi-and-essence-supporting trio traditionally used in seasonal tonics and longevity formulas. The kit contains 100 visible, whole-form ingredients, allowing the brewer to see the quality of every piece before steeping.

Quality & Sensory

Each ingredient is presented in its whole, recognizable form — ginseng roots with visible striations and a warm, earthy fragrance; goji berries in deep crimson with a soft, chewy texture and mild sweet-tart taste; deer antler velvet slices in pale ivory with a fine, downy surface. When steeped in wine, the blend gradually releases a rich amber-to-deep-red color, a layered herbal aroma combining ginseng's bittersweet depth, goji's fruity sweetness, and antler velvet's subtle savory warmth, yielding a smooth, full-bodied infusion with a lingering, gently sweet finish.

Traditional Uses

In folk herbal practice, this type of wine-soaking blend is steeped in grain liquor for weeks to months to draw out the warming, qi-tonifying, and essence-nourishing properties of its ingredients. Ginseng has long been decocted in soups and steeped in wine as a premier qi tonic; goji berries are simmered in congee, teas, and soups for daily blood-and-essence nourishment; deer antler velvet is traditionally reserved for warming winter tonics and longevity formulas. Together, they are placed back into daily life through slow-steeped infusions shared at family gatherings, seasonal transitions, and restorative routines.
