Nice clean product with no odd debris or suspect lumps. Color is a nice nut brown, slightly lighter color than the other brand I purchase, but consistent and with gold flecking. Product is dry and well protected in it's packaging; no odd or slightly off aroma. I had happened to run out and needed this, so I used it immediately in my gluten free flour blend. It gave a nicer more soft nutty flavor to the flower than my previous brand. We also add it to our breakfast oatmeal and the results were the same. A soft nutty flavor, not overpowering. The grind is fine enough that there were no clumping issues in the oatmeal or flour blend. Some brands I've tried have almost an oily feel to them, this one did not, a good indication of proper processing.
