Master Jack (Turban) Seed Bulb

Master Jack, an award-winning Turban – always voted “Best Flavoured Garlic” in my Garlic Shed Tours and also known as “The Garlic Butter King”.  It looks very similar to other Turbans – but Master Jack is arguably the best strong, sweet, nutty and full mouth flavoured garlic in Australia. Great for children as it cooks into a lovely rich, smooth, sweet and nutty true garlic flavour.
