🔍 What is Red Curculigo?

Red Curculigo, scientifically known as Curculigo orchioides Gaertn, belongs to the Amaryllidaceae (lily) family. In Vietnam, it’s also called “Tien Mao” or “Ngai Cau”, and its name “Sâm Cau” (Ginseng-Betel) comes from its tonic-like properties and leaves that resemble those of the betel plant (cau).

The plant grows to a height of 35–40 cm, with long narrow leaves (about 15 cm), red tuberous roots, and yellow flowers. It is commonly found in the highland provinces of Northern Vietnam, such as Lao Cai, Dien Bien, Hoa Binh, and Quang Nam—often in grass hills near forest edges.

🔴 Red vs. Black Curculigo

There are two types:

• Red Curculigo: Lower in toxins, mild and pleasant when infused in alcohol.

• Black Curculigo: More potent but contains higher toxicity and may cause skin irritation, so it’s not recommended for alcohol infusions.

For this reason, Red Curculigo is preferred for traditional wine infusions.
