What is Jiaogulan Tea?
Jiaogulan (เจียวกู่หลาน), also known as Gynostemma Pentaphyllum or the “Immortality Herb”, is a climbing vine native to the mountainous regions of Southern China and Southeast Asia. For centuries, it has been treasured in traditional Asian medicine for its remarkable health-promoting properties.
This premium Jiaogulan tea is grown organically at the Royal Project Foundation’s Agricultural Station on Doi Ang Khang — one of Thailand’s highest peaks in Chiang Mai province. The cool mountain climate and pristine environment create ideal growing conditions for this precious herb.
Jiaogulan contains powerful compounds called gypenosides (similar to the ginsenosides found in ginseng), which are believed to be responsible for its many traditional benefits:
- Cholesterol Support — Traditionally used to help maintain healthy cholesterol levels
- Liver Health — Known in Thai medicine for strengthening and protecting the liver
- Respiratory Relief — Used to soothe coughs and support respiratory health
- Adaptogenic Properties — Helps the body adapt to stress and maintain balance
- Longevity — Called “Immortality Herb” due to its traditional use for promoting long life
The Royal Project Foundation was established by His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej to help hill tribe communities grow sustainable crops. Their Jiaogulan is some of the finest in Thailand — 100% organic, grown at high altitude, and produced with care. It’s an honour to share this with you.
