What is Dang Shen
Wild Dang Shen (Codonopsis root) is a traditional Chinese herbal ingredient widely used for soup, tea, and tonic food.
Our Dang Shen is harvested from deep mountain areas and selected from 5–10 year old roots, which contain richer nutrients and stronger aroma.
During harvest, high-quality roots release natural sap, which is a sign of good quality old Dang Shen.
Only carefully selected roots are sliced and naturally dried to preserve the fragrance and nutrition.

Natural Sweetening / Sugar Effect
High-quality Dang Shen may show natural sugar crystallization after storage.

old roots contain more nutrients

sweetness increases over time
This is normal and shows good quality.
Sweet smell and slight stickiness are signs of real old Dang Shen.
