Origin & Lore
Jiaogulan (Gynostemma pentaphyllum) is a climbing vine of the gourd family, related to cucumbers and melons, native to southern China, Southeast Asia, Korea and Japan. It first appears in Chinese writing in Zhu Su’s famine-food herbal of 1406, and it has long been brewed as a tea, where its reputation for longevity earned it its nickname.
In the mountains of southern China, jiaogulan is brewed as an everyday tea and called the herb of immortality.
