China Yunnan Highland Organic Garlic - No Chemical Pesticide Used (180g)

Appearance: Yunnan highland garlic is typically smaller and more compact than standard white garlic. It often features beautiful purple-streaked or reddish-purple outer skins (a hallmark of high-anthocyanin content due to UV protection).

The Clove Structure: While some bulbs are multi-cloved, Yunnan is world-famous for its single-clove garlic (known as 独头蒜 or dú tóu suàn). However, even the multi-cloved varieties have tightly packed, plump cloves with thin, tight skins.

Flavor: Expect a bold, sharp, and intensely spicy kick with a clean, lingering heat. It has a higher allicin content (the compound responsible for garlic's health benefits and pungency) than standard garlic.

Aroma: Pungent and deeply savory, with a subtle earthy, almost nutty undertone. When cooked, it mellows into a rich, sweet, and creamy umami rather than turning bitter.
