What Are Dried Black Mulberries?

Dried Black Mulberries are whole dried mulberry fruits with a naturally deep colour, elongated form and richly textured appearance.

Mulberries are fruits produced by trees of the Morus genus.

When dried, the fruit develops a more concentrated character while retaining its distinctive clustered texture.

Known in Chinese as 桑葚干 (Sang Shen Gan), dried mulberries are familiar within Chinese food and pantry traditions.

They are fruits rather than conventional tea leaves, making them suitable for exploring beyond the teacup through appropriate infusions, tea pairings and culinary recipes.

What Does Sang Shen Gan Mean?

Sang Shen Gan / 桑葚干 is the Chinese name used for dried mulberries.

For this product:

Dried Black Mulberries · Dried Mulberries · Sang Shen Gan · 桑葚干

all refer to the whole dried mulberry fruit presented in this container.

Including both the English and Chinese names makes this ingredient easier to recognize when exploring Chinese tea, dried-fruit and pantry traditions.

Taste & Character

Dried Black Mulberries offer a distinctly fruit-forward experience.

Flavour Character:
Naturally sweet · Fruity · Gently tart · Mellow

Compared with earthy roots, woody mushrooms or bitter botanical ingredients, dried mulberries provide a more immediately recognizable fruit character.

Their natural sweetness is balanced by a gentle tang, adding a little contrast without overpowering the fruit.

Natural variation between individual fruits and batches may affect sweetness, tartness and texture.

How to Enjoy Dried Mulberries

Always follow the preparation directions provided on the product packaging or an appropriate recipe.

Simple Fruit Infusion

Place the recommended amount of dried mulberries in a clean cup or glass.

Add water according to the product-specific preparation directions and allow the fruit to infuse.

Watch the colour gradually develop and enjoy the mellow, sweet-tart fruit character.

Tea Pairings

Dried Mulberries can be explored alongside compatible loose-leaf teas in appropriate recipes.

Porridges

Depending on the recipe, dried mulberries may be incorporated into porridge as a dried-fruit ingredient.

Everyday Recipes

Their whole-fruit format also makes them suitable for appropriate dried-fruit recipes and other culinary preparations.

Because Dried Mulberries are whole fruits, they can move naturally between the teacup and the kitchen.

Pair Dried Mulberries with Tea

Their naturally sweet-tart fruit character creates different experiences depending on the tea used as a base.

Black Tea + Mulberry

A fuller tea base paired with rich dried-fruit character.

White Tea + Mulberry

A gentler tea profile that allows the naturally sweet-tart character of Mulberry to remain noticeable.

Floral Tea + Mulberry

Floral aromas provide an aromatic contrast to the naturally fruity character of dried Mulberries.

Pu-erh + Mulberry

A deeper, earthier tea profile for someone interested in contrasting tea and fruit characters.

Different teas require different water temperatures and steeping times. Follow preparation guidance appropriate to the specific tea and recipe.

Dried Mulberry vs. Black Goji

Although Dried Mulberry and Black Goji are both naturally dark dried fruits, they offer very different experiences.

Dried Black Mulberry

• Larger, elongated dried fruit

• Richly textured appearance

• Sweeter and more fruit-forward

• Naturally sweet with gentle tartness

• Familiar dried-fruit experience

Black Goji

• Smaller, compact berry

• Deep purple-black appearance

• Mild and delicately fruity

• Particularly known for releasing natural pigments into water

• More visually expressive infusion experience

For someone primarily looking for recognizable dried-fruit character and natural sweetness, Dried Mulberry offers the more familiar experience.

Black Goji provides a different experience, particularly for someone interested in colourful botanical infusions.

Both can have a place in a pantry built around dried fruits, tea and botanical ingredients.

A Beautiful Addition to the Pantry

Dried Black Mulberries fit naturally into a pantry built around tea, dried fruits and traditional ingredients.

Explore them alongside:

Loose-Leaf Tea · Goji Berries · Dried Fruits · Flowers · Citrus · Roots · Botanical Ingredients

Their deep colour, elongated shape and richly textured fruit form provide a beautiful visual contrast beside bright Goji Berries, pale roots and delicate dried flowers.

Their approachable flavour also creates an easy bridge between tea culture and everyday food.

For Tea Lovers & Home Cooks

Dried Black Mulberries are particularly versatile for someone who enjoys both tea rituals and everyday cooking.

They may appeal to:

• Tea lovers exploring fruit and botanical ingredients

• Home cooks
