Banyan Botanicals Chyavanprash – Organic Ayurvedic Herbal Jam with Raw Honey, Amla & Ashwagandha – Vitalizing Superfood Immune Support Supplement* – 9.4 oz – Non GMO Sustainably Sourced Gluten Free

It’s been a few years since I’ve ordered this jam. It’s still TASTY. For me it’s strong so I eat MAYBE 1-2 tsps daily. The texture is smooth, because of the honey and ghee, it may have a medium viscosity. Easy to swallow. It’s a general health maintenance item. I like it from the spoon, in a cup of warm cow milk before bed, on my toast, mixed in with rolled or steel cut oatmeal…. Can make a PBJ using this product. Great value if you eat recommended amounts on the low end (1 tsp once a day). Already subscribed to this item, same diminutive size. Banyan Botanicals, Thank you. Coming back for the Banyan Botanical kitchari kit if on Amazon

Like spicy, warm, exotically fruity molasses, leaning more towards a honeylike base flavor than a fruit preserve fruitiness. Not tart, but rather rootsy, botanical and warming. I had tried one other organic chyawanprash, from Organic India, and had reviewed that one as having a tougher texture but also a higher quantity of medicinal roots, fruits, herbs, and botanicals, and also had originally found it less sweet, and so had preferred it. I purchased about a dozen jars direct from Organic India after first ordering here, but as I worked my way through the first couple of jars, I found the texture in each progressive jar becoming tougher and tougher to work out (apparently, they dry rather quickly), until I finally unsealed a fresh jar to find a solid mass my spoon could not push or break through. I recently placed another order with Banyan Botanicals and included a few jars of their chyavanprash, and was very pleased, again, to find its consistency so spreadable and easy. I just finished one jar of this chyavanprash and will have to get back to my Organic India stock and do my best with those jars, but I wanted to come back and share my reconsidered review. These are still my two favorite chyawanprashes (sp?), but I now feel that Banyan is probably the better of the two. It does contain fewer botanicals, but that may even be by design (how many of those things can possibly be compatible all at once to our human system? after all, these ingredients are all potent!). I also had originally thought it was much sweeter than the Organic India chyawanprash, but, on second thought, I may have had that other chyawanprash after eating a piece of fruit or something, because I find them almost equal in sweetness now. If you are interested in trying both, please do. If you get a fresh jar of Organic India chyawanprash, it will be a nice treat too. If you are only looking for one, though, maybe Banyan Botanicals would be your best bet. The product is more consistent and smooth in texture, there is nothing grainy or gritty in it, it is delicious, and it is easy to spoon out from the jar. After one jar, I am sure you will return for more. Please contact your seller and request care in shipping, though, as these jars are glass and fragile, and can break in transit (it happened to me once). Enjoy!

This product has really boosted my immunity!

I have nothing good to say at this point other than I actually did like the flavor and quality of this product. But if they think they can pawn a damaged product to wanting, loyal consumers? I must question their desire to be a "top quality" product. As can be seen by my photos, the packaging is undamaged and apparently, wrapped by Banyon. However, the item was received with the lid dented to a point that product is likely exposed to air. And under the lid is visible leakage/overfill. My point, there are many other high quality Chayavanprash vendors out there. They will be receiving my business and not Banyan Botanicals.

This Banyan Botanicals Chyavanprash has a nice consistency and pleasant taste. I am giving this to my 89 year old mother and she enjoys it. I also take it for my health as well. I do feel it is priced high for the small sized container. The reason for 4 stars. I will purchase again and recommend this product.

I believe that this product is an effective way to build immunity. I like that I can buy it on prime so I can save on shipping. The jar I received was fresh and delicious.

A very good product.

I am writing a follow up review. The formula has changed. Best that the product be clearly marked for customers who have enjoyed the previous recipe. Previously, I gave this one star as I did not find the new taste as edible. There may be too much of a molasses flavor for my preference...this may not present an issue for others. This has been a beneficial supplement in our home.
