The dried root came in a resealable pouch and smelled earthy, exactly what I expected from a whole herb. I've been using it for stiff hands after long days of typing, and the powder mixes fine into tea.

I've been taking devil's claw for my knees after hikes and the stiffness in the mornings is noticeably milder. The dried root has that earthy, slightly bitter taste you'd expect, so I just steep it longer with a bit of honey.

The pods arrived intact and dry, with that earthy, slightly bitter aroma I remember from past batches. I've been adding a small pinch to my evening tea for a week now, and my knees feel noticeably less stiff after sitting at my desk all day.
