About KGV Korea Ginseng Vertriebs GmbH
KGV Korea Ginseng Vertriebs GmbH is a third-generation family business based in Lohmar (Rhein-Sieg district, North Rhine-Westphalia), specialising in Korean red ginseng (Panax Ginseng C. A. Meyer). The ginseng roots grow in the ground for six years before being harvested by hand; a steaming process gives the originally white root its characteristic red colour and an altered composition of ginsenosides. The company personally visits the growing regions, inspects the roots on site and processes them in Germany according to strict pharmaceutical standards. The Korean Pure Red Ginseng product series is approved as a medicinal product in Germany. The product range includes root slices, root powder capsules (300 mg), powder extract capsules (500 mg), tablets and instant tea; distribution takes place via pharmacies as well as an own online shop.
