Rhizome of the Zingiberaceae family, close to ginger, from the Alpinia galanga or Alpinia officinarum variety.
Lesser galangal ( Alpinia officinarum ) or common galangal belongs to the Zingiberaceae family. The genus Alpinia has around 200 species of evergreen rhizomatous perennials, originating from the edges of light woods in the humid tropical regions of India, Southeast Asia and Australia. Lesser galangal, as well as greater galangal, have been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries.
The plant can reach 1.5m in height or even more for certain ornamental species, not hardy at all, generally grown in greenhouses, preferably in the ground, because the imposing and powerful roots are unsuitable for growing in pots.The galangal rhizome contains an aromatic essence rich in alpha-pinene, cineole, and linalool, as well as sesquiterpene lactones, including galangol and galangin.

ATABOUT THE TASTINGS
All our products are tested. Alone, when I receive them, then as a team and sometimes with food professionals and we inform you of the results of our feelings and emotions experienced.
This is in order to guide you in your choices, but also to best present the tea you choose. However, it is important to remember that in terms of tastes, sensations and emotions, it remains above all a personal matter and that nothing is more important than your own feelings and experiences and it is the same for the preparations.
We only give you keys, it's up to you to explore in order to understand and see if you fall in harmony with our conclusions... or not, in both cases, let us know, because that's also sharing!
