Region & Habitat:
Dong Quai is native to the high-altitude regions of China, Japan, and Korea. It thrives in cool, moist environments, particularly in mountain meadows and forested valleys, where the root is harvested in autumn after 3 years of growth.
Traditional & Cultural Use:
Dong Quai has a long history in traditional Chinese practices, often used in multi-herb blends and non-medicinal wellness rituals. It has also been incorporated into East Asian culinary and ceremonial preparations. By the late 20th century, Dong Quai was present in herbal trade networks in the UK and EU, especially in East Asian markets and apothecaries prior to 1997.
Preparation & Application:
Typically used as part of botanical mixtures for infusions, herbal blends, and topical preparations. The dried powdered root is sometimes included in traditional food preparations or brewed in teas without health claims.
Organoleptic Notes:
Earthy, sweet-spicy aroma with a rich, warm taste. Fine tan to brown powder, often blended with milder herbs due to its intensity.
