Spice Up Your Brews with Grains of Paradise

Grains of Paradise, also known as Paradise Seed, is a unique spice with origins in West Africa, known for its peppery, citrusy, and slightly floral flavor, reminiscent of ginger. This 1 oz bag of Grains of Paradise is the perfect addition to your brewing ingredients, commonly used in Belgian ales, farmhouse styles, and specialty beers. Its bold flavor profile can also enhance the taste of spirits, ciders, and even meads, making it a versatile spice for homebrewers. Most notably used in Sam Adams summer ales, holiday ales, and Belgian ales.

How and When to Use Grains of Paradise

To extract the most out of this spice, crush or grind the seed prior to use.
