When Good for You
is Good for Everyone
Our Arjuna Ginger Bar delivers real ginger goodness with both a sense of adventure and
responsibility. Handcrafted in small batches from four simple ingredients: stone-ground
organic “Sparrow” ginger, delicate low Glycemic Index coconut sugar and a little pectin
and organic tapioca starch to give it its unique body and texture. When you treat yourself
to this better-for-you indulgence, you’re directly supporting our farmers in East Java,
thanks to the sustainable Arjuna Share program.

I like my ginger in food.
Spicy is best with chiles or
wasabi. In drinks, infused
into gin with honeycomb and
grapefruit peel.
