Astragalus Root Slices
A high-quality, apothecary-grade herb made with whole astragalus root slices (Huang Qi), traditionally valued for building strength, restoring energy, and supporting the body through seasonal and environmental stressors. When brewed, the slices create a light, smooth, subtly sweet infusion with earthy, woody undertones and a gentle, warming finish.
Astragalus root slices are ideal for slow-simmered herbal preparations, teas, soups, broths, and multi-herb formulas, delivering a classic whole-root experience for those who value traditional herbalism in its most authentic form.
