What's Fragrant Litsea?

Litsea cubeba is one of the plant resources with the highest citral content. Citral is a synthetic ionone series fragrance that is one of the most expensive fragrances in the world. Citral shows a strong lemon-like aroma and is widely used in cosmetics, fragrances, pharmaceutics, and as a flavor additive in the food industry 

Litsea cubeba is a Chinese herbal medicine and a natural spice treasure. The flowers can be used to make tea, which has a rich aroma and a sweet taste. It can help people with weak spleen and stomach to nourish the stomach and clear away heat, and reduce internal heat. In addition, people often use dried flowers and tea leaves to make a type of tea called "Gramma tea", which has a beneficial effect in relieving heat.

To pick the flowers that are just blooming in early spring, you can go to the high-altitude villages around Xiaoyang Town, or walk for 1-2 hours into the mountains. Our tea farmers pick them from old trees beside streams and on stone walls.
