Korean Ginseng (Scientific Name: Panax ginseng) is a type of ginseng native to the Korean Peninsula. Xu's Ginseng selects high-quality Korean ginseng seeds and cultivates them on Xu's farms to provide customers with premium Korean ginseng products.
Fresh Korean ginseng, due to its high water content, is also known as "water ginseng." The Korean ginseng commonly seen in the market is actually Korean Red Ginseng, which is made by steaming and drying fresh water ginseng, resulting in a reddish-brown color. Korean Red Ginseng contains the highest amount of ginsenosides among all types of ginseng. As early as the Shennong Bencao Jing (The Divine Farmer's Herb-Root Classic), the medicinal properties of ginseng were documented, with ginseng being regarded as a top-grade medicinal herb. Korean ginseng is rich in various ginsenosides and has earned the reputation of being “as valuable as a gemstone.”
Korean ginseng is highly versatile, with slicing being the primary method of preparation. It is also commonly used in alcohol infusion or as an ingredient in cosmetics. Xu’s Ginseng offers a diverse range of Korean ginseng products, from whole ginseng roots to ginseng slices, and even ginseng roots and nodes, to meet the varied needs of our customers.
