Freeze Dried Osmanthus Flower 冻干桂花

In TCM, osmanthus flower is used to help dispel cold, improve digestion and support respiratory health. Beyond that, osmanthus flower is one of the most exquisite flowers that can be used to make a sweet-smelling floral tea, cake, jelly, or even jam. It is not only sweet and flavourful but is also a good source of polyphenols, carotene, magnesium, and Vitamin B3 among other vitamins and minerals.

The freshly picked, pre-washed botanicals are rapidly frozen at -40°C and undergo vacuum dehydration to carefully remove moisture. This process ensures a longer-lasting preservation without any additives, while retaining over 97% of the flower’s nutrients. The result? A natural, aromatic, and flavorful brewing experience you can savour.
