This chicory is grown in Nebraska as a new farming initiative begun a number of years ago. The quality of this chicory root is great. The roast is just a touch lighter and the taste is slightly less bitter.
Chicory is the roasted and ground root of the cultivated plant species, Chicorium Intybus, subspecies Sativum. It was used as a coffee filler in Europe and eventually found its way to New Orleans. Since then it has become a local favorite.
