Rich in vitamin C, its small, flexible needles are highly valued in herbal teas. In the past, its young shoots were eaten as emergency food in the forest. Larch is used in many ways in alternative medicine. For example, as a dietary supplement, elixir, ointment, poultice, infusion, disinfectant, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat do larch needles taste like?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere is a very mild resinous taste, a hint of sweetness and fir.
