Description
Schisandra chinensis (in Chinese, w wi zi, literally "five-flavor berry" which is its common name) is native to forests of Northern China and the Russian Far East. Its Chinese name comes from the fact that its berries possess all five basic flavors: salty, sweet, sour, pungent (spicy), and bitter. In China, a wine is made from the berries. In Korean, the berries are known as omija (five flavors). The cordial drink made from the berries is called omija cha, meaning "omija tea"; see Korean tea.** Directions Powder : Mix 1 or 2 teaspoons of the herbal powder with water, milk, rice, or soup No Caffeine, No Chemical Additives.
