Also known as: Peruvian carob · Tara tannin

Tara Powder is a vegetable tannin of the pyrogallic type, produced from the seed pods of Caesalpinia spinosa, a shrub native to the valleys of the Andes in Peru. The pods contain 43–51% tannin, making tara a reliable and sustainable source for natural dyeing. Traditionally, it has been used in leather tanning for producing a pale, high-quality base, as well as in inks and deep black dyes.

In natural dyeing and botanical printing, tara yields a clear, warm beige on its own and shifts to deep greys and blacks with the addition of iron. It is especially valued as a base tannin on cellulose fibres and as an assistant to improve both lightfastness and washfastness of other natural dyes. A staple tannin in many dye studios, tara is often used as a first step in building complex, layered colour.

Our tara is sustainably harvested by local farmers without damaging the plants. The crop helps prevent soil erosion while providing vital income for rural communities.

Good choice.
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I was really surprised... I was worried I'd get too ripe or super not ready avocados ordering from amazon but these turned out great. Good quality, acceptable size, no bruising, tasted great with a little olive oil and salt. Would get again!

Perfect
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
Smaller than anticipated but perfect size for 1 person. Will buy again! Loved that they put 3 frozen bottled water in the bottom of an insulated bag to keep them fresh since I wasn't home when they were delivered. @68 cents a piece, the value for the money = 100%. Borderline ripe but perfect to use today or in a few days.

Didn’t ripen well for me.
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I bought these avocados while they were still very green, hoping they would ripen at home. Unfortunately, when they did soften, the inside had dark spots and didn’t look fresh. The texture wasn’t what I expected either. I’m not sure if it was just this batch, but the ripening process didn’t turn out well for me.

Creamy and perfect avocados every time 🥑✨
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
These Hass avocados are always fresh, creamy, and full of flavor. I use them for avocado toast, salads, guacamole, and sandwiches and they taste delicious every time. One of my favorite avocados to buy at Whole Foods.

The Avengers of avocados - Soft, smooth, and ready for greatness
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I don’t know who’s running quality control over in Haas‑land, but these avocados showed up like they had something to prove. Each arrived at that magical stage of ripeness where you gently press the skin and it gives you that perfect “I’m ready for guac, but I’m also classy enough for toast” softness. The flavor was exactly what you want from a Haas: buttery, rich, and just a little nutty. I cut into each one expecting at least one dud (we’ve all been betrayed by a stringy, brown avocado before), but nope, green perfection all the way through. Honestly, I felt like I should’ve applauded. They held up beautifully in everything I threw at them: sliced on toast, mashed for guacamole, cubed for salads, eaten straight with a spoon like the avocado‑obsessed adult I’ve become. If you’re tired of playing avocado roulette at the grocery store, this pack is a surprisingly reliable win. Delicious, creamy, and ready to be eaten.
