Bright, tart, and beautifully complex, our organic schisandra berries are harvested from Schisandra chinensis, a revered vine native to the forests of China, Korea, and parts of Russia. Known in traditional herbal systems as “five-flavour fruit,” schisandra carries a remarkable balance of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and pungent notes, an expression of the plant’s deep vitality and long-standing place in herbal tradition.
These dried schisandra berries are carefully selected to preserve their vibrant colour, resinous aroma, and naturally robust flavour. When simmered, they create a vivid ruby-red infusion that is both invigorating and grounding. Schisandra has been treasured for centuries for its adaptogenic qualities, offering steady, balanced support during times of emotional or physical challenge. It is often prepared as a decoction, infused into tonics, or blended into wellness formulas.
At Apotheka, we choose schisandra berries that reflect the plant’s true character, bright, potent, and ethically grown. Their multi-layered flavour makes them a beautiful addition to daily herbal routines, whether enjoyed as tea, incorporated into traditional preparations, or crafted into nourishing syrups and elixirs.
