Aged Tangerine Peel Whole (Citrus Reticulata)

Aged Tangerine Peel Whole (Citrus reticulata), known in Traditional Chinese Medicine as Chen Pi (陈皮), is a fragrant, warming, and bitter-aromatic herb used to regulate qi, strengthen digestion, and transform dampness and phlegm. These whole, naturally aged citrus peels develop a rich aroma and darkened color over time, increasing their potency and enhancing their traditional therapeutic value.

In TCM, Chen Pi is prized for its ability to harmonize the middle burner, making it effective for addressing symptoms like bloating, gas, poor appetite, nausea, and phlegm congestion. It also supports the movement of stagnant qi, particularly in the digestive and respiratory systems, and is often used in formulas to relieve chest fullness or cough with damp-phlegm.

Beyond traditional uses, aged tangerine peel is valued in culinary applications and wellness teas for its zesty, earthy flavor. It pairs well with warming herbs like ginger, cinnamon, and licorice, and is often added to soups, stews, or herbal infusions for both taste and function.

Each batch of Aged Tangerine Peel Whole (Citrus reticulata) is naturally aged, sun-dried, and carefully selected to ensure deep color, bold fragrance, and optimal herbal strength. Whether used in digestive teas, phlegm-clearing decoctions, or traditional Chinese cooking, Chen Pi offers a time-honored, aromatic way to move stagnation, support digestion, and bring warmth and balance to the body.
