Green Canteen Raw Handmade Sugarcane Jaggery Vegan and Gluten Free (No Added Sugar, No Impurities, No Added Colour, No Added Preservatives) (1000gm)

This is a long feedback but being a Jaggery lover and coming from a village background where I have seen Jaggery manufacturing myself , I could not stop myself.I hope this review will also help people who do not quite understand what a true raw Jaggery is and how it is different from commercial jaggery available in supermarkets.Pros :1) The Jaggery color is black , which means it is not processed with hydrochloric acid or Sulfur ( A common process for commercial Jaggery )2)Its taste is a little pungent , which means no white sugar , corn syrups and additives are mixed in this .3) If you mix this with milk and boil , the milk will sour , which is a characteristic of Raw Jaggery . So if you want to mix it in Milk , please  add jaggery at the end and do not keep the milk on the flame for a long time after adding it.Also  switch off the flame while mixing jaggery and milk. The acidity in the jaggery will curdle the milk if they boil together. 4) I fell in love with its packaging which is completely bio-degradable . A relief from all other commercial plastic packet death-beds options.5) This Jaggery seems to be collected directly by farmers . This is handmade and not manufactured in a commercial plant , which means buying this is also going to support those village farmers directly.Cons :1) I am not sure how long this will be available after the jaggery season . I just wish they maintain enough stocks.2) There is no bulk pagaging available ( 2 kg – 5 kg)3) I wish this gets available soon with organic certification also , though that may increase its price.Overall hats off to Green Canteen on launching a product which reminds me of my childhood days & a taste of real raw sugarcane jaggery ! It is Just YUM ! Try it once if you have not done it yet and see the difference in taste

I had bought Green Canteen jaggery from Amazon - but the product turned out to be of inferior quality. Tasted like old stock. I called up the customer service of Green Canteen - I must admit, their service levels was awesome. 1st Ravi spoke to me to understand what the problem was, then a senior called to address the issue. Ravi called back to say - "We have dispatched the jagger & have also made arrangements to pick the amazon consignment." Ravi called me back to check how the new consignment tasted. Keep it up guys !!! Your product is just like your service levels - "Awesome".

I always had a soft jagerry, but this one is so hard even in outside temperature. Need a hammer to break it.Taste is good though.How I am using it effortlessly is by boil it in water and consume it.Not sure is this one is organic or the one I used to eat it. 🙄

Product is original and flavour is natural. Packing is good but I would prefer it without decorative packing with low cost. It's cost is too high. I also find some dust particles inside it when liquefied with water. Instead of paying attention to packing, company should try to make it more economical for all

Flavour presentation raw non preservative nonchemical all are correct. But there is no almond and no sesame seeds in it, as shown in amazon site. In market we can have such type of "GUR" (Jaggery) at 50 to 70 Rs per kg. So it's too too much costly in india, specially in UP UK North India.

There were thin shreds of plastic in the balls ..also there are lots of stone and sand like particles which you can see when you dissolve in water . I expect better quality for the amount we are paying- normal jaggery is around 80-90, we are paying triple..

There is bit sour taste . What is reasons.

Only good thing was just the packaging.It will not be too harsh to say that this is the same jaggery which we used to give to our buffaloes.Nothing special, too dark (there is nothing wrong in being dark), there is strange bitterness which comes from being too old.I can get the same jaggery or even better from local shops in Haryana @ 35 ruppees per KG.What seller is doing is called loot.....they are selling the ordinary jaggery in the attractive packaging. People like us get attaracted when we see such packaging and believe that it must be natural, free from chemicals and something special.But guys this one is not worth to pay 9 times the price.One more thing....I received one A4 size note with the packaging claiming that if I put one more order directly at greeplanet.in I will get one KG jaggery free. The whole thing is fraud. It's not worth the price.
