UPC: 089836005687
Frontier Co-op's Cut & Sifted Gentian Root is a culinary and herbal ingredient sourced from France, intended for use in teas and bitters. The root comes from Gentiana lutea, a plant that grows in mountainous regions and requires 7 to 10 seasons to mature, contributing to its notably bitter flavor profile, which has been utilized in traditional applications like digestive bitters for over two millennia.
This product is cut and sifted for easy preparation as a tea, with directions recommending steeping one teaspoon in boiling water. It is certified Kosher and produced without artificial ingredients, ETO treatment, or irradiation. The 16-ounce package provides approximately five cups of herb, with the manufacturer noting that color and size may vary naturally due to growing conditions.
