Pure, fresh Star Anise from Kerala

Star anise is the seed pod from the fruit of the Illicium verum plant, an evergreen shrub native to Southwest China, rich in Powerful Bioactive Compounds. The star anise pod, which is shaped like a star (hence its name), has an average of eight points, each containing a single pea-sized seed. Both the seeds and the pod are used in cooking and contain the sweet, potent anise flavor. Star anise is sold whole and ground. Kanan Naturale provides the best quality pure, fresh, handpicked star Anise to the customers. We collect fresh organic spices directly from the farmers in and around Western ghat region.
