Korean Siberian Ginseng Stem (Eleuthero) | 2.1 oz
Kosbee Korean Eleuthero is a caffeine-free herbal tea made from whole Korean eleuthero stems — Acanthopanax senticosus (Eleutherococcus senticosus), often called Siberian ginseng — a Product of Korea, 100% pure wood with nothing added, for a woody, earthy, lightly bitter cup.
This is the whole stem (the Acanthopanax wood), not a powder or capsule — simmered slowly into a mellow, woody tea. It's naturally caffeine-free, so it's easy to sip any time of day. Each 2.1 oz (60 g) pack holds about 6 servings.
High in Korea's mountains, eleuthero — gasiogapi — has long been a familiar woody herb, traditionally simmered into a plain, earthy tea. Kosbee never grinds it into powder; we keep the whole stems grown in Korea's clean highlands, so you can see exactly what you're brewing and simmer it yourself.
Whole Stems, Never Powder
Eleuthero is usually sold as capsules, tinctures, or powder — forms where you can't see the actual herb. Kosbee sells the whole stem, so you can verify it's 100% real eleuthero with nothing blended in.
Carefully sourced from Korea's clean highlands, it's a Product of Korea with nothing added.
The Stem, Not a Capsule
Siberian ginseng is the common name for eleuthero, though it is not a true Panax ginseng — it's a separate woody plant (Acanthopanax). Brewed as a stem, it gives a mellow, earthy, lightly bitter cup quite different from a root tea.

How to Brew Korean Eleuthero Stem
Rinse about 0.35 oz (10 g) of stems, add to 4 to 6 cups (1 to 1.5 liters) of water, bring to a boil, then simmer on low for 40 minutes to an hour. It's woody and lightly bitter — add honey or licorice to soften it.
For a broth, drop 3 to 4 pieces into chicken or duck soup (samgyetang or baeksuk) to round out the odor and deepen the pot.
It's hard wood, so never chew or eat it raw — simmer it for tea or broth, then strain out and discard the pieces.
How to Enjoy It Safely
Eleuthero has a lively, warming character, so many people prefer to drink it earlier in the day rather than late at night.
Never chew or eat the wood raw — simmer it for tea and discard the pieces.
If you have high blood pressure, take heart or other prescription medication, or are pregnant or nursing, talk to your doctor before drinking it regularly.
