Quality, sourcing and documentation
What buyers should be able to verify before they order, and how we check each lot of dried blue lotus flower.
Species identification
Each lot is identified as Nymphaea caerulea. Identity is checked by inspecting petal color, shape and golden stamens, and lab identity testing can be requested.
Certificate of analysis
Batch testing on request: identity, moisture, microbial counts, heavy metals and pesticide residues.
Documented origin
Country of origin and harvest information stated on each quote and lot document.
Careful packing
Packed in sealed food-grade poly bags to limit breakage and moisture pickup.
Import compliance
Commercial invoice and packing list with every shipment, and phytosanitary paperwork where required.
Spec sheets
Downloadable product specification and documentation for buyers.
How each lot is checked
