150-gram Korean Red Panax Ginseng Root Herb - Red Ginseng

Korean red Panax ginseng root (Panax ginseng) offers a traditional tonic herb prized in East Asian wellness practices for centuries. This 150-gram pack contains whole dried red ginseng roots that have been steamed and dried—the process that gives them their distinctive reddish-brown color and concentrated character. Slice thinly for tea, add to soups, or chew directly.

Red ginseng holds a revered place in Korean and Chinese traditional practices—the steaming and drying process that transforms fresh white ginseng into this reddish-brown root has been refined over generations. This 150-gram pack of whole Korean red Panax ginseng roots offers the earthy, slightly bitter flavor that ginseng enthusiasts recognize. Steep thin slices in hot water for a warming tea, simmer with chicken for samgyetang, or add to herbal blends. The roots can be re-steeped multiple times.
