Schisandra Berries (Wu Wei Zi) 90 g

The Schisandra berry, also known as Wu Wei Zi (五味子), is one of the oldest medicinal plants in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is gaining increasing importance in the Western world.

This berry, which originated in the forests of Northeast China, also grows in other regions of Asia and Northeast Europe. Schisandra berries are valued for their versatility and high content of valuable nutrients.

In China and Korea, the Schisandra berry is also known as the "five-flavor berry" because it combines five different tastes: sweet, sour, bitter, pungent, and salty. This remarkable combination makes it a special ingredient in Traditional Chinese Medicine and in modern diets.

Our dried Schisandra berries can not only be used as an ingredient in teas or smoothies, but can also be eaten plain. Whether as a snack between meals, in muesli, yogurt, desserts or baked goods.
We also lovingly call it the "wonder berry" because its taste experience is unsurpassed. The taste is extraordinary, a blend of sweet, sour, bitter, pungent, and salty notes that make the berries a special snack.
They are ideal for people looking for a natural source of nutrients that can be easily integrated into everyday life.
