Dried Mulberry Fruit (Morus nigra) — Sulfur-Free Black Mulberry for Herbal Tea & Wellness

Dried Black Mulberry (Morus nigra), known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Sāng Shèn (桑葚), is the sun-ripened, low-temperature dried fruit of the mulberry tree, prized for centuries as a sweet, yin-nourishing food herb. Its nature is sweet, slightly cold, and gently moistening, making it a beloved daily tonic for nourishing the Liver and Kidney, enriching blood and body fluids, and supporting a calm, well-rested constitution. This sulfur-free, ready-to-use black mulberry is sourced from Sichuan and offered as a loose, food-grade dried fruit for teas, decoctions, and everyday nourishment.
