Kosbee Korean Roasted Burdock Root is gobo (우엉) grown in Chungju, Korea, and slow-roasted into thick, whole slices — caffeine-free with no added sugar, for a deep, nutty, coffee-like tea you can sip hot or cold. Raw burdock can taste sharp and earthy, which is why many people find it hard to drink. Roasting is the fix: it turns that edge into a warm, deep, nutty flavor a lot like a comforting cup of coffee or barley tea. Each resealable pouch holds 5.25 oz (150 g). In the West, burdock was long valued as an herb, but its earthy taste kept many from drinking it as tea. Koreans found the answer in roasting. Kosbee takes plump burdock from Chungju — one of Korea's best burdock regions — slices it thick, and roasts it to a deep, nutty flavor worthy of replacing your coffee. Roasted Away the "Tastes Like Dirt" The most common complaint about burdock tea is that raw root tastes like dirt. Kosbee slow-roasts it so that earthy, astringent edge turns into a deep, nutty, slightly sweet, coffee-like flavor — an easy, satisfying caffeine-free cup. It has no added sugar and no caffeine, so it's an easy everyday drink, hot or iced.
