Tart and quenching with a lovely rosé color, Schisandra Berry is an adaptogenic elixir crafted from a single ingredient: forest grown schisandra berry. Known as the “five flavor berry,” schisandra grows like a grape on a vine and has a unique balance of sweet, sour, salty, bitter and pungent tastes. For centuries in East Asia it has been used as a mood booster, beauty tonic and aphrodisiac that bolsters immunity and vigor.

Herbalist’s Note
Schisandra berries are very aromatic, pungent and complex with a range of polyphenols. The fruit skin has rare citrus, spice and multi-floral aromatics while the pulp has a cranberry and wild cider apple taste. The seeds are extremely bitter, pungent and full of astringent antioxidant and detoxifying substances. Each brew targets the right temperature and time enough for seed contact to express the refreshing polyphenolic and lignan effect without overpowering the amazing fruity and floral flavors.
