Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between Cochin and Alleppey ginger?
A: Both are premium varieties from Kerala. 'Cochin Ginger' is known for its lower fiber and high volatile oil, great for flavor. 'Alleppey Ginger' is prized for its high gingerol content (pungency) and is often preferred for extracts and supplements.
Q: How do you measure gingerol content?
A: We test gingerol content using the HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) method in an accredited laboratory. This provides the most accurate and reliable percentage, which is included in the Certificate of Analysis (COA) for your batch.
Q: Is your ginger powder (Sonth) pungent?
A: Yes. We specifically source high-gingerol varieties to ensure our powder has a strong, sharp, and pungent flavor profile, which is a key quality marker for Indian ginger.
Q: Can you provide Steam Sterilized (E-St.) ginger powder?
A: Yes. We offer ETO-free Steam Sterilized ginger powder. This process uses high-temperature steam to reduce microbial counts (TPC, yeast, mold) to meet the strict food safety standards of the EU, USA, and Japan.
Q: What is the main shipping port for ginger?
A: We primarily ship from Cochin Port (Kerala), which is the main hub for ginger exports and is located in the heart of the ginger-growing region.
