this is my second purchase. Because I used organic ginger from peru, it is not comparable because the taste cannot match. But base on the price is acceptable hence I replenish again.

First time purchase. I used to brew dry organic ginger slices everyday but it was a very expensive 600g for $60. So I change to this , If it is good, I will make purchase again when the stock is liwm
