Harvest Location: Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China
Botanical Name: Morus alba
Harvest: Spring 2026
Ingredients: 100% Dried Mulberry Leaves
Mulberry Leaf Tea is a traditional Chinese herbal infusion made from the leaves of the white mulberry tree (Morus alba), a plant deeply connected to Chinese agricultural history.
For thousands of years, mulberry trees have been cultivated throughout China, most famously as the essential food source for silkworms and the foundation of the ancient silk industry.
The finest mulberry leaves are harvested in spring when the young leaves are tender, vibrant, and naturally rich in aroma. After careful selection, the leaves are gently dried to preserve their fresh character, producing a smooth and refreshing herbal infusion with a unique connection to Chinese tea and farming traditions.
When brewed, Mulberry Leaf Tea produces a clear golden-green liquor with aromas of fresh garden herbs, young bamboo, and sweet grass. The flavor is light and clean, with subtle vegetal sweetness, a mild nutty character, and a refreshing finish similar to a delicate green tea.
Unlike true tea (Camellia sinensis), mulberry leaf contains no caffeine, making it an excellent choice for evening enjoyment or as a daily herbal infusion. Its naturally gentle character also makes it a versatile blending ingredient with green teas, white teas, chrysanthemum, goji berries, and other traditional Chinese botanicals.
