The Chinese living abroad call it Taoist hermit tea. It has a 400-year history and consists of more than 10 rare medicinal herbs collected in dense forests. It is produced using a special technology. It is usually packed in a bamboo box or a gourd (lat. Lagenária sicerária). And this is not without reason, because the gourd is a symbol of doctors in ancient China, since medicines were stored in it.
The tea has a pleasant taste and sweet aroma. It is one of the most favorite cool/cold teas of Guangdong province. It has excellent properties: it alleviates the body's condition in the heat, promotes digestion, protects against insect pests (residents of Guangdong add it when salting fish and cooking meat). The tea is used to treat sore throats, coughs, lung diseases, including tuberculosis, intestinal disorders, joint pain in rheumatism, scleroderma, toxicosis of pregnancy and diseases in the postpartum period, abscesses and urticaria.
Externally, dry tea looks diverse: with stalks and wood components. It has a peppery aroma. The taste is woody-spicy and slightly hot, but the latter does not dominate, but creates a pleasant roughness in the throat.
