Jiaogulan Classic is the best-selling Jiaogulan. Besides this variant, we also sell two other products made from the dried leaves of Gynostemma Pentaphyllum:

• Jiaogulan Anhui

What is the difference? The three varieties of Jiaogulan come from different regions of Hunan Province in China. Hunan is a large province—about 2.5 times the size of the Netherlands. Because the climate and growing conditions of the plant influence its aroma, nuances in flavor develop: Jiaogulan 'Makino' has a sweet aroma, 'Anhui' a more bitter aroma, and 'Classic' falls somewhere in between.

Enriching the taste of Jiaogulan

• With licorice: Jiaogulan goes well with licorice, which can enhance the sweet taste.
• With green tea: It can also be combined with green tea, which makes the flavour a bit more complex.
• With mint: Mint can be a refreshing addition to the flavor of Jiaogulan.
