Tai Ju Chrysanthemum Tea (Chrysanthemum morifolium) — Dried Flower Buds for Herbal Infusion

Tai Ju Chrysanthemum Tea (Chrysanthemum morifolium) is the dried, unopened flower bud of a beloved traditional herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Tāi Jú (胎菊), a premium early-harvest form of Hang Bai Ju (杭白菊). For centuries, chrysanthemum buds have been prized as a cooling, clarifying, and spirit-lightening flower, used to refresh the eyes, soothe the head, and gently clear internal heat. Its nature is sweet, slightly bitter, and slightly cool, making it a gentle yet refreshing herb for calming the Liver, brightening the eyes, and harmonizing the body during warm seasons.
