Cassumunar Ginger

Cassumunar ginger, also known scientifically as Zingiber cassumunar, is a species of plant in the ginger family found in parts of Southeast Asia, including Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. This perennial herb features broad green leaves and vibrant yellow-green flowers. It is particularly noted for its large and aromatic rhizomes, which are used in various traditional remedies and in perfumery.

The scent profile of cassumunar ginger is complex and distinctive. It exudes a strong, spicy aroma reminiscent of traditional ginger but with more intense earthy and woody notes. Underlying these primary scents are hints of citrus and pine, which contribute to its refreshing and invigorating fragrance. This unique blend of scents makes cassumunar ginger particularly valued not only in culinary applications but also in aromatherapy and the cosmetic industry, where its oil is used for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties.
