Organic Bitter Kola (Garcinia kola)

Description

Bitter kola, botanically known as Garcinia kola, is a distinctive traditional African ingredient recognised for its bold, bitter taste. Familiar in Nigeria and other parts of West Africa, it is associated with local food culture, hospitality, and the sharing of traditional delicacies.

Its intense flavour is part of its character, making it especially familiar to people who grew up around it or enjoy exploring traditional African ingredients. Bitter kola is sometimes shared during visits and gatherings, where offering familiar local foods can carry meaning beyond the food itself.

Choose the quantity that suits your needs: 1kg for £15 or a 5-piece pack for £2, as supplied. If you are trying bitter kola for the first time, start with a small amount to discover whether its distinctive taste suits you.
