My wife and I have used this ginger for years. I’m sure the new recipe is more healthy with 0.4 g added sugar vs 1.0 g but it’s so strong of a flavor that it’s not enjoyable. Maybe you could offer two versions, original and new low sugar? We loved the original recipe.

Hi Simon, Thanks for your note and your loyalty to The Ginger People. Due to seasonality, we source the fresh ginger from both China and Fiji. The original recipe is Chinese origin and we still offer that product. Please email us at [email protected] and we’ll help you get the sweeter version you prefer.
Just wanted to say I absolutely LOVE this organic sushi ginger — so glad I found it in our favorite grocery store! This is the best ginger ever! I’m finding the 6.7 oz size — does it come in a larger jar? Thank you for such a great product!

Thank you so much! We love to hear from our fans and are delighted you enjoy our Organic Sushi Ginger so much! We do actually made a larger food-service sized jar that you as a consumer can exclusively order from this seller: https://www.azurestandard.com/shop/product/food/canned/vegetables/ginger-products/pickled-sushi/natural-pickled-sushi-ginger-organic/16678. We hope that helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions or comments.
If you want the ginger you get at a sushi restaurant, this is not for you. Cane sugar is the second ingredient and it really just ruins the whole thing. A lot of potential here but please tone the sugar WAY down.
Response from The Ginger People US
Hi Isaac, Thanks for your note. We’re listening. We recently reduced the sugar content in the sushi ginger we make in Fiji from 19% to 11% (a 42% reduction), so you may like that new version better. It’s more “ginger forward” for sure. An interesting side note: Some sushi ginger you find at restaurants is sweetened with saccharin and preserved with sodium benzoate and sodium metabisulfite — ingredients you’ll never find in our pure, wholesome products. – Mr. Knobs
I am a sushi fanatic, and I think your sushi ginger is some of the best out there. The flavor and freshness is unbeatable, and I sometimes just eat it straight out of the jar! I always make sure to keep a jar or two in the house. Thank you for making it, and keep up the good work!
