Schisandra Berries – Schisandra chinensis

Schisandra berries, also known as Chinese magnolia vine fruit or “Wu Wei Zi,” are prized in East Asian traditions for their distinctive five-flavor profile and long history of use in herbal wellness and culinary blends. These deep red dried berries offer a complex taste combining sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and mildly spicy notes, with a subtle lemon-like aroma that makes them uniquely versatile.

Traditionally enjoyed as a tea, infusion, or blended with honey, fruits, or herbs, schisandra berries are popular in daily wellness routines and adaptogen-inspired recipes. Commonly grown in China and East Asia, they are carefully dried and hand-packed in small batches in a kraft pouch to preserve freshness, aroma, and natural character.
