Red Fragrant Garlic

Red Fragrant Garlic

　　Red Fragrant Garlic is a specialty of Luocheng Mulao Autonomous County with a long history of cultivation. It is mainly grown in towns in central Luocheng such as Sibu, Dongmen, Qiaotou, Huangjin, and Long’an. The garlic is cultivated without the use of any chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Its cloves are uniformly sized, purple in color, and rich in allicin, delivering a strong, spicy aroma. The garlic scapes are of moderate thickness, with a crisp and tender texture, and a sweet, fresh, and delicious flavor, offering an excellent taste. Since the 1970s, Luocheng Red Fragrant Garlic and its scapes have been exported annually to cities such as Beijing, the northeastern region, and southern locations including Guangzhou and Hong Kong, where they are in high demand and often sell out quickly.
