BÓ JÚHUĀ CHRYSANTHEMUM TEA 亳菊花茶
2025 Harvest · Certified Organic · No-Spray · Estate Grown Sebastopol, California
0.5oz · $12 · Approximately 10–14 servings
SOLD OUT — 2026 Harvest begins September. Sign up for our newsletter to be notified.
We are one of the few farms in the United States growing certified organic Bó Júhuā — the superior Bo variety of chrysanthemum that Traditional Chinese Medicine has prized above all others for over a thousand years.
Not all chrysanthemum tea is the same. In China three main varieties are cultivated for tea and medicine — Háng Júhuā 杭菊花 from Hangzhou, Gòng Júhuā 贡菊花 from Huizhou, and Bó Júhuā 亳菊花 from Bozhou in Anhui Province. Among practitioners and connoisseurs, Bó Júhuā is considered the most fragrant, the most medicinally potent, and the most prized. It is the variety traditionally reserved for the finest teas and the most serious therapeutic use.
We grow it here in Sebastopol, California. USA.
Our certified organic, no-spray Bó Júhuā is harvested four times per week at the precise moment of peak bloom — September through November each year. Timing is everything. Flowers harvested a day too early or too late lose the volatile aromatic oils that carry both the flavor and the therapeutic properties that make this variety worth seeking out. After harvest the flowers are dried carefully and packaged by hand in small batches into kraft bags.
The 2025 harvest is gone. We sell out every year without exception.
The flavor:
Naturally sweet, floral and delicate with none of the bitterness that inferior chrysanthemum teas carry. Bó Júhuā at proper ripeness and careful drying is clean and fragrant — a cooling, calming cup that works as beautifully hot in winter as it does cold-brewed over ice in summer. The flowers open fully in your cup as they steep. This is part of the experience.
Traditional Chinese Medicine uses 亳菊花:
Bó Júhuā is one of the most important herbs in the Chinese pharmacopeia — classified as a herb that releases the exterior and clears heat. Traditional uses include:
Blood pressure and cardiovascular health — dilates blood vessels, supports arterial flexibility, used in treating hypertension and heart pain
Liver health — clears liver heat and wind, supports detoxification
Eye health — red, dry, swollen or tired eyes; blurry vision; excessive tearing
Headache and migraine — especially associated with heat, rising liver yang, or hypertension
Cold and flu, fever and heatstroke — releases exterior heat
Dizziness, tinnitus and hearing loss — calms rising yang energy
Atherosclerosis — cardiovascular protective properties
Caffeine-free. Safe to drink throughout the day. Traditionally paired with green tea for compounding cardiovascular and antioxidant benefit. Add dried goji berries for sweetness and additional eye health support.
How to brew:
Hot: 3–4 grams of flowers — approximately one rounded tablespoon — per 6–8 ounces of water just under boiling (175–185°F). Steep 3–5 minutes. Re-steep 2–3 times — later steeps reveal different floral notes.
Cold brew: Place flowers in cold filtered water overnight in the refrigerator. A delicate, naturally sweet summer drink.
With green tea: Add a pinch of loose leaf green tea to the same cup. A classic Chinese pairing that compounds the cardiovascular benefits of both.
With rock sugar: A small piece of Chinese rock sugar (冰糖) is the traditional sweetener — adds gentle sweetness without overpowering the floral character.

Chinese cuisine runs on dried chilies. The fragrance in your chili oil, the color in your doubanjiang, the heat in your hot pot, the soul of your mala sauce — all of it starts here, with the right dried chili grown with intention.
We grow four distinct Chinese and Korean chili varieties at Radical Family Farms in Sebastopol, California — each from authentic seed, each with its own character, heat level, and culinary purpose. The same chilies that go into our Pó Po's Malà Hot Sauce and our Duo Jiao fermented chili paste. Grown certified organic, no-spray, in Sonoma County soil and harvested at peak ripeness from our 2025 growing season.
This set gives you the full toolkit of a serious Chinese kitchen.
What's inside:
Er Jing Tiao 二荆条 · 1oz · Mild to Moderate Heat
The foundational chili of Sichuan cuisine. Fruity, fragrant, deeply red.
Sichuan Chili (Er Jing Tiao Cross) · 1oz · Medium to Hot
More heat, less fruit. The everyday workhorse of the Sichuan pantry.
Xiao Mi La 小米辣 · 1oz · Hot · 75,000 SHU
Small, fierce, intensely aromatic. A Yunnan and Guizhou staple.
Korean Chili · 1oz · Medium Heat
Sweet, earthy warmth. The foundation of gochugaru and Korean BBQ.
What to make with them:
Chili crisp and chili oil — the combination of Er Jing Tiao and Xiao Mi La is the classic base
Doubanjiang — Er Jing Tiao is the non-negotiable ingredient
Hot pot broth — whole dried chilies bloomed in oil with Sichuan peppercorn
Lacto-fermented chili paste — the foundation of our own Duo Jiao
Korean gochugaru — grind your Korean chili for the freshest possible kimchi base
Sichuan dry-fried dishes — Lazi Ji (chili chicken), Mapo Tofu, Shuizhu Yu
Chili flakes for finishing — grind any variety for fresher flavor than anything in a jar
Why grow your own:
Most dried Chinese chilies available in the US come from large commercial operations in China — commodity growing with no traceability. Ours come from thirty feet away. You know the farm, the variety, the harvest year, and the growing methods. Certified organic. No-spray. No-till. Non-GMO. Sebastopol, California.
The difference in fragrance when you open the bag is immediate.
