Coriander Seed - 1oz to 5lb

Coriander Seed

Ancient Egyptian and Sanskrit texts document the use of coriander for more than 3,000 years. 

The Chinese once believed the herb conferred immortality and in the Middle Ages it was put into love potions as an aphrodisiac. Coriander is now widely used in specialty and Belgian style beers.

The seeds have a citrus flavor when crushed, almost lemon like. 

Coriander seeds are sometimes used in brewing certain styles of beer, particularly some Belgian witbier and German Hefeweizens. 

When brewing wheat beers they are typically used with orange peel to add a citrus character to the brew.
