Originating in China, this fruit has been cultivated and cherished for its exceptional taste and medicinal properties. It was highly prized by Chinese emperors and has been a symbol of longevity and good fortune in Chinese culture. Over time, its popularity has spread to other parts of Asia and beyond.
