Aromatic
Purple spring garlic
Wonderful aroma with a mild taste; delicately purple-hued on the outside, but white inside. Tip: only add spring garlic towards the end of the cooking process, as it will otherwise lose its aroma.
Premium
Purple garlic
Famous for its quality and intense flavour, purple garlic is distinctively pungent but with a more delicate and less persistent aroma. The outer skin is white and the cloves within reddish or of a purple hue.
Traditional
White Spanish garlic
Mild in taste and with a distinctive and lasting aroma, white garlic is one of the most common sorts available. Bulbs of white garlic usually have more cloves than other varieties.
