Following extensive research on the available varieties of turmeric to be taken regularly as a supplement for joint pains and swelling for my wife, and having tried out many other suppliers products over many months, I finally found Lakedong Turmeric marketed by Dear Farmer, a product grown only in the Meghalaya/Lakadong district of north east India having the highest Curcamin (9%) content, while most other tumeric varieties researched contained substantially lower percentages of this vital ingredient.

I decided to order The Dear Farmer product for my wife as it is claimed to be grown naturally in a small holdings, harvested at the optimum time and sundried naturally, which I understand to take longer (rather than forced drying using applied heat) and ground to the powder form, all processes carried out at the source by a small community of growers using traditional techniques to retain the high quality and effectiveness of naturally occuring Curcumin.

My wife has found the Dear Farmer product to be superior to other available forms of turmeric and has twice re-ordered (4 x 100g each time) for the excellence of the product and customer service. Will soon be re-ordering again.

Too good (and expensive) to use as a spice in cooking although this should surpass the turmeric bought at the local asian store!!!

Note - It is claimed by experts that a heaped teaspoon of ground black pepper added and well mixed to the contents of each 100g bottle before use enhances the absorption rate of the active ingredient. My wife adds a teaspoon of this turmeric powder to her warm coffee with breakfast each morning without fail, and a little warm water added to any remaining un-dissolved turmeric sediment, stirred and swallow. Refrain from boiling (like in a curry) although this would dissolve the powder.

I love the taste, it's very smooth and tastes great just boiled in water, with some oat or soy drink added. I also enjoyed the handwritten, personalised card it came with :) It would be nice to get it in local whole foods shops.

Best quality Turmeric I’ve found at a reasonable price.

We enjoy our turmeric as a nightly drink, milk, honey with a dash of pepper, a truly delicious drink that we really look forward too !

So far good

Wonderful taste, wonderful mission. Absolutely love the turmeric and hope to see more spices coming up soon :)

Excellent product and excellent service, thank you

The Turmeric I purchased is excellent...A lovely card and well packaged will shop again.. Thankyou..

Tasted good, looks vibrant arrived quickly

Love the story and the fact that it is organic, with a super high amount of curcumin.
