Quality & Sensory

Each batch is naturally sun-dried to preserve its pale yellowish-white color, firm yet slightly translucent texture, and mild earthy aroma. When decocted or simmered, the slices soften and release a gentle, subtly sweet flavor with a smooth, slightly viscous mouthfeel, adding nourishing body to broths and teas without overpowering other ingredients.
