Wanted: Sugar Cane
« on: April 04, 2022, 12:59:43 AM »
I'm primarily looking for Asian Black sugar cane, but if you have other varieties, I'd also be willing to buy.

Check with Simon Chen here in San Diego, he has some good ones he juices. I have a couple of varieties, but I don't know the names.

The black is best. It looks nicer and taste is slightly better but not much different.  There's not much variety in sugar cane because it's grown from cuttings and not seeds. So there's only a few varieties and they are all pretty similar to each other. I guess there is wild sugar cane somewhere but I have never seen it.

The best one I have is called jamaica stripe.  Grows fast, good flavor, healthier canes, straight canes that juice well and can be eaten plain.

I dont have extra right now but they sell it on ebay or etsy.
