Chen Pi 陈皮 – Time Hidden in Mandarin Peel
Chen Pi 陈皮 may at first glance seem like nothing more than ordinary mandarin peel, but in Chinese tradition it is far more than simply dried citrus rind. Once properly processed, it becomes an ingredient that continues to transform with time – its aroma softens, its flavour becomes rounder, and deeper notes of herbs, spices, wood and dried fruit gradually emerge. This is precisely why Chen Pi is so fascinating not only in Chinese cuisine and Traditional Chinese Medicine, but also in the world of tea, where it naturally complements Pu-erh, Liu Bao and other teas suited to long-term ageing.
