Research notes

A separate WebSearch snippet (not the direct page fetch) cited a slightly different figure of '175 reviews, 4.95/5' for this product; the direct page fetch used for this record returned 183 total reviews. This discrepancy likely reflects review counts changing between snapshots/caches rather than the live page contradicting itself, but is flagged for awareness. No cultivar variety/name (beyond '30 years nurtured' descriptor), specific region/farm, certifications, harvest timing, awards, shelf life beyond storage guidance, or ingredients list disclosed on the fetched page.
