52USA Star Anise, 16 Ounce (Pack of 1), NON-GMO Verified Chinese Star Anise Whole, Dried Star Anise Pods for Tea and baking

These star of anise are fantastic. Very aromatic, primarily full stars and very affordable.

So pretty and fragrant! I used these in my Christmas simmer pot gift bags. They added the right touch of spice and beauty. Because of the potency of the anise, I only used a couple per bag. Great value for money!

It did have some broken pieces, but that’s to be expected with anise. I was able to use those for my mulling bag, and there were more than enough whole pieces to add some elegance to the serving mugs for several holidays to come. The flavor and quality are overall excellent.

This was a very aromic product definitely good for cooking or for putting on the stove top to freshen the home very arromic. Definitely will buy again good price point. You will not be disappointed. If you're buying this for decoration there was some broken pieces on some of them I didn't mind because I wasn't buying it to use as decoration so you might consider that if you're wanting them all to come whole to you.

I love to cook and bake and one of the more recent recipes I tried during apple season was homemade applesauce and the recipe I used called for some star anise and it added such a depth of flavor

Strong smell, good taste I will buy again

Bought it for my homemade ptpourri I love the smell! The packaging was perfect to keep it fresh and thw pieces were while I would buy it again.

This was a fantastic purchase! Every Thanksgiving, I simmer apple cider in the slow cooker with orange slices, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and star anise, and the smell is pure holiday magic. It makes the whole house feel warm and welcoming! We keep a bottle of Applejack nearby so guests can add a splash if they’d like. Star anise was surprisingly hard to find locally, so this was such a convenient and affordable find. It was perfect for our Thanksgiving tradition and I’ll definitely be buying it again for the holidays!

Great product

I was happy with amount of the anise in the packet as I was making homemade Christmas potpouri for Christmas gifts, but I was disappointed that approximately 10% were broken and not a fully complete star, but that is just an estetic appearance. They smell wonderful and I am certain will smell lovely in the tea bag when placed in boiling water.
