Korean burdock root, cut into coins and roasted until it takes on the color of chestnut shell. It brews a clear amber cup — nutty, toasty, faintly sweet, and not bitter. No caffeine at all.
What it is
Burdock — ueong in Korean — is a long, slender root that grows deep. We slice it into coins, dry it, and roast it slowly until the raw earthiness turns round and toasty. One ingredient, nothing blended in. Many burdock teas are cut with barley or corn to soften the price; this one is burdock alone, which is why the cup tastes of the root rather than of grain.
How to brew it
One cup — 2–3 coins in about 300ml (10 oz) of hot water, steeped 1–3 minutes. Longer for a stronger cup. A day's pot — about 20 coins in 2L (67 oz) of boiling water, simmered 3–5 minutes, then cooled and poured into a carafe to drink through the day.
Rinse the coins quickly under running water before brewing. It takes off loose roasting particles and keeps the cup clear.
Roasted, not blended
The roast is what rounds the flavor — not an additive. Nothing is added before, during, or after: no flavoring, no sweetener, no filler herbs.
A cup without a clock
Because there is no caffeine, it belongs to the evening as easily as the morning. Hot in cold weather; chilled in a pitcher through summer. It is the pot people keep going on the stove through a long afternoon.

Whether I am drinking it hot during chilly mornings or iced on a warm afternoon, this burdock tea never disappoints. The absence of caffeine means I can enjoy multiple mugs without second thought, and the clean finish leaves me feeling refreshed every single time.
Preparing a big pot for the day is now part of my daily ritual. Simmering twenty coins creates a rich, earthy brew that tastes amazing both hot in the morning and chilled from the pitcher during the afternoon. I love that it is a single ingredient with zero fillers or artificial flavors.
Finding a tea with absolute purity is rare, but RootTerra delivers with these 100% roasted burdock coins. The flavor is round and comforting, completely missing the harsh earthiness you might expect from raw roots. It tastes authentic, grounding, and exceptionally well-crafted.
