Our Buffalo Ginger is an heirloom ginger variety from a group of farmers in the mountains of northern Vietnam. Known for its fruity and floral aroma and powerful heat, this is a complex, flavorful ginger powder that will elevate baked goods, stews, curries, and beverages from hot drinks to cocktails.
In Vietnam, this ginger is used with chicken, soup, rice, and candy. It’s also been used for medicinal purposes - to calm upset stomachs, restore appetite, and support the immune system. Any way you slice it, this is a spicy, wonderfully intense ginger.

United StatesSo far I’ve only used it for tea, but my husband who isn’t a fan of ginger or tea asked for it multiple times since I made it using the B&B ginger

CanadaI wish you had recipes we could access to use these spices with. I read about them and now have forgot what I was going to make with them.
United States United StatesFor the first time, I was able to taste the ginger when I made pumpkin pie. It made the flavor pop!
