Kuding tea' translates to “bitter nail tea,” describing not just the flavor, but the needle-like shape of its twisted dried leaves. The experience of drinking the tea is somewhat unusual as it takes time to become accustomed to and enjoy the bitter taste. Beneath its bitterness is a gentle, herbal, grassy quality and, at the end, a deep, lingering sweetness that tames much of its bitter bite.

Although there is no medical evidence to support it, Kuding tea is purportedly a popular Chinese herb, used to soothe a sore throat, help reduce fat and blood pressure, regulate temperature in the body, and cure the common cold.
