Dried Osmanthus Flowers (Osmanthus fragrans) — Gui Hua Loose Flower Tea, 500g Bulk

Dried Osmanthus Flowers (Osmanthus fragrans), known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Guì Huā (桂花), are the sun-gold blossoms of the fragrant osmanthus tree, a beloved food herb (药食同源) in Chinese wellness culture. Prized for centuries as a warming, aromatic flower used to lift the spirit, harmonize the middle, and scatter cold, Gui Hua carries a sweet, slightly warm nature that makes it gentle yet delightfully fragrant in daily teas and culinary infusions. This new-crop batch is sourced from Guangxi, the heartland of Chinese osmanthus, and gently low-temperature slow-dried to preserve its golden color and honeyed perfume.

Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully low-temperature slow-dried to protect the delicate petals, keeping them a warm golden-amber hue with a soft, papery texture.

When steeped, they yield a pale gold infusion with a naturally sweet, floral taste and a lingering osmanthus perfume — no bitterness, only a clean, rounded aroma that lingers in the cup.

Traditional Uses

In folk herbal practice, Gui Hua is brewed as a fragrant daily tea to warm the middle, lift the mood, and scatter cold — a gentle companion through cooler seasons. It is a classic ingredient in osmanthus wine, osmanthus honey, and osmanthus congee, and is often paired with ingredients like rose, jujube, and goji berry for a soothing floral blend. In Chinese tea houses, it is layered with green or black tea to create the beloved Gui Hua Cha, a cup that carries the scent of autumn.
