In this session we follow in the footsteps of Shen Nong and see what we can learn about herbs by tasting them.

Rather than just memorizing the functions and indications from Bensky, Boris and I sit down and taste some Huang Qi and Du Zhong and see if we can taste the tastes and feel the effects.

So follow along with us!

Or if you want to learn more about tasting herbs, check out these resources:
