Curcuma longa is a perennial, rhizomatous plant in the ginger family that is native to India and southeast Asia.

For thousands of years, turmeric root has been used in Ayurveda for its healthful properties. Our organic turmeric can be used to flavor foods like curries and rice dishes or beverages like golden milk and turmeric chai.

Indigenous to India, turmeric is now cultivated in tropical regions throughout the world. Turmeric is an important herb in Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine. It has a history of use spanning millennia and is considered energetically hot. The aromatic, dried rhizome tastes mildly pungent and is slightly bitter. It remains a significant herb throughout southern Asia and has gained in popularity in the United States. Turmeric root’s main constituent, curcumin, is thought to be responsible for many of the rhizome’s wellness-supporting properties and results in its brilliant yellow color.
