The meticulous process behind Hex Herbal Medicine's dried flower tea ensures maximum preservation of aromatic compounds, color, and bioactive constituents. Our methodology combines traditional botanical expertise with advanced technological solutions.
Materials: Sustainably harvested, certified organic Rosa rugosa and Rosa damascena buds. Sourced from regions known for optimal growing conditions, ensuring high volatile oil content and vibrant pigmentation.
Standards: Adherence to organic farming regulations (e.g., USDA Organic, EU Organic). Rigorous visual inspection for purity and quality at harvest.
Process: Buds are carefully inspected and gently cleaned to remove any residual field debris without compromising their delicate structure or phytochemical integrity.
Standards: Utilizes purified water. Controlled environment to prevent contamination. No chemical treatments or harsh washing agents.
Process: Our proprietary low-temperature vacuum drying or specialized air drying methods are employed. This critical step prevents degradation of heat-sensitive compounds and preserves the vibrant color and potent aroma.

Process: Dried buds are meticulously sorted by size, color, and integrity. Advanced optical sorting ensures uniformity. Each batch undergoes rigorous laboratory analysis.
Testing Standards: ISO 22000 (Food Safety Management), HACCP protocols for critical control points. Microbiological testing (e.g., total plate count, yeast/mold, coliforms), heavy metal analysis (Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic, Mercury), pesticide residue screening (GC-MS/LC-MS), moisture content, volatile oil content via GC-FID.
Process: Packaged in multi-layer, food-grade, airtight, and light-blocking materials (e.g., aluminum foil bags, bulk drums) under controlled atmospheric conditions to maintain freshness and prevent degradation.
Service Life: Typical shelf life of 18-24 months when stored in a cool, dry, dark place below 25°C and relative humidity below 60%.
Target Industries: Our premium dried rose tea serves the nutraceutical (e.g., functional supplements, health drinks), food & beverage (e.g., specialty teas, baking ingredients, culinary garnishes), and cosmetic industries (e.g., natural skincare, fragrance components). In these sectors, our products offer advantages like enhanced flavor profiles, potent antioxidant activity, and superior aesthetic appeal.
