Steam distilled Lonicerae flos - 5ml
Gold Silver Flower, honeysuckle flower

One whiff of the unique, intensely sweet floral aroma of our steam distilled Jin Yin Hua brings on a feeling of giddy innocence. The fragrance rekindles a childlike awe as if discovering the world anew with a clean slate. There is a sense of renewal, a change of perspective, an opening to possibilities.

On the tongue, a drop of this essential oil is slightly numbing, spicy, bitter and sweet. It reaches deep to the core and disperses out to the exterior to detoxify and nourish at the same time.

Jin Yin Hua means “Gold Silver Flower” and illustrates that the flowers are both tonifying (gold) and clearing (silver). The buds are silver (preferred medicinally) turning gold when the blooms fully open after a few days. Loncera japonica is an extremely vigorous vine. The Chinese name of the whole plant, Ren Dong, meaning “winter resisting,” refers to the fact that it is a perennial and resistant to cold. Best quality grows in Henan and Shandong provence.

Jin Yin Hua essential oil is a sweet and soothing yet powerful aid to clear heat and clean toxicity. It is broadly anti inflammatory, anti pathogenic. In Chinese medicine, this herb is famous for treatment of colds, flus and respiratory infections where there is fever, sore throat and irritability. It is also used for sores, accesses and infections of the throat, digestive tract and skin.
