Description

Mu Dan Pi (Moutan Cortex), also known as Dan Pi (丹皮), is the dried root bark of the tree peony, Paeonia suffruticosa, a highly revered herb in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). For centuries, Dan Pi has been prized as a cooling, blood-quickening, and heat-clearing herb, traditionally used to relieve heat in the blood, soothe stagnant blood, and calm internal heat patterns. Its nature is bitter, acrid, and slightly cold, making it a focused yet gentle herb for clearing heat, cooling the blood, and harmonizing the Liver and Kidney channels.

Quality & Sensory

Each batch is naturally sun-dried to preserve its characteristic pale pinkish-brown outer bark, creamy inner surface, and fine, slightly fibrous texture. The dried bark carries a mild, earthy, faintly floral aroma. When decocted, it yields a light amber infusion with a subtle bitter note and a faintly sweet, cooling aftertaste. The powdered form is finely milled, uniform in color, and blends smoothly into teas, decoctions, and herbal formulas.
