Our partnership project – D20 Roots Chinese Medicine Farm

In collaboration with The High Education Institution (THEi), this 40,000 sqft farmland project—sponsored by Far East Consortium—advances Chinese medicine research and cultural preservation. Nearly 100 medicinal plant species were cultivated, leading to four published papers and six product developments. The initiative also fosters education and outreach, and continues to bridge academia, healthcare, and the community in promoting traditional Chinese medicine.

  • Our partnership project
    Recognising the importance of preserving biodiversity, DHI has transformed 40,000 sq ft farmland into an environmental conservation area and a Traditional Chinese Medicinal Research Farm with the Chinese Pharmacy Department of the Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong (THEi) to create a Chinese Medicine and Culture Research Centre. This 3-year sponsorship, with a matching grant from the government, will enable the school to research, promote Chinese Medicine Culture and preserve the biodiversity of the farmland.

    One of the innovation products of this project is the launch of the herbal tea (涼茶) 3.0 which is our Sparkling Herbal Tea in coallboration with Mindful Sparks. The team has pioneered to experiment three flavours with Chinese Medicine namely Malamanzi Merr Tea, White Lingzhi Pear Tea with Lemon, and Thin Evodia Cacao Husk Tea. We have selected two flavours for our initial sales batch and will gather feedback for potential commercialisation. Currently, these two flavours can be tasted in our Dorsett Wanchai, Dorsett Kwun Tong and Silka Tsuen Wan hotels.
