Wuyuan Imperial Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium) — Dried Golden Chrysanthemum Tea, 500g Loose

Wuyuan Imperial Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium) is the sun-golden dried flower head of a treasured traditional herb known in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Wù Yuán Huáng Jú (婺源皇菊), also called Huī Zhōu Huáng Jú (徽州黄菊). Grown in the misty hills of Anhui and prized for centuries as a cooling, eye-brightening, and spirit-clearing flower, it has long been steeped as a single-bloom tea — one flower, one cup. Its nature is sweet, slightly cold, and gently dispersing, making it a mild yet refreshing herb for soothing the Liver, clearing heat, and harmonizing the senses.

Quality & Sensory

Each flower head is carefully low-temperature slow-baked to preserve its full golden-yellow petals, layered round shape, and delicate floral aroma. The petals remain intact and softly crisp, unfurling gracefully when hot water is poured over them. The brewed liquor is pale gold and clear, releasing a fresh, honeyed chrysanthemum fragrance with a smooth, subtly sweet taste and a clean, cooling finish that lingers gently on the palate.

Traditional Uses

In folk herbal practice, Wuyuan Imperial Chrysanthemum is steeped as a single-bloom tea — one whole flower placed in a glass cup and repeatedly infused through the day. It is commonly blended with goji berry, jujube, or rock sugar for a gentle daily refreshment, and is a familiar companion in autumn and summer tea routines when the body seeks cooling balance. In TCM food culture, chrysanthemum is traditionally associated with clearing heat, soothing the Liver, and brightening the eyes, and it appears in seasonal teas, congee, and cooling herbal drinks.
