Longan fruit from Dragon Herbs
The longan is a fruit that looks somewhat like the lychee. The tree on which the fruit grows is also from the same family as the lychee. The Chinese name is Long Yan Rou. This means Dragon Eye Meat. Of course, as a fruit, it is not really 'meat'. In general, the fruit is called longan in other countries. This means 'dragon eyes'. The fruit is so called because, when the fruit is fresh, the flesh of the peeled fruit has a translucent white color. The dark brown seed is visible through the translucent flesh and resembles the pupil of an eye. The fruit therefore looks strikingly like the bulging eyes of the dragons that are often depicted in Chinese art.
Longan fruit from Dragon Herbs , the highest quality
The fruit is harvested in a Di Tao source in Fujian Province (South China). Di Tao means that the fruit is collected in its natural environment, in an area where the local population originally does this. Longan Fruit is characterized by its high iron content. It contains about 20 times as much iron as grapes and 15 times the amount of spinach. A nice addition to your diet!
