The blend, and how it is used

Mugwort (yaksuk) is classified among Korean wormwood varieties as a warm-natured type. It is harvested in May in Korea's western coastal region, including Ganghwa.

As with the bellflower candy, the mugwort is steeped and then spray-dried into a powder — a process chosen to reduce loss of flavour and nutrients before it goes into the candy.

The only sweetness comes from cane sugar and rice syrup, not refined sugar. Propolis is added for a clean finish. Herbal pharmacists trained at Kyung Hee University formulate it; Hanyang Confectionery makes it in a HACCP certified facility.

A food for everyday consumption. It makes no health claims.

When to reach for it

When you want the sharp, clean edge of mugwort
In a stuffy room with little fresh air
When you want a hard candy without refined sugar
When you want a different flavour from the bellflower or ssanghwa candy

How to enjoy it

Dissolve in the mouth without water. Let it melt slowly rather than swallowing whole, to avoid choking.

The tube fits a car cup holder, so it travels well.

Sensitive to moisture and heat — reseal the remainder and keep it somewhere cool.
