Unfortunately, stevia products aren't required to be standardized from manufacturer to manufacturer, since it's still considered as "herbal supplement" rather than "sweetener".

Personally I prefer the liquid/glycerine-based drops rather than powders. I recently bought some "natural stevia leaf powder", sort of gray coloured, with powdered inulin (chicory root extract) as the filler. Inulin is good. However, this product tastes awful .. the difference between hardly sweet and bitter is less than ½ tsp I'll stick to the clear liquid extract from now on.
