I wonder where this organic Spirulina comes from

NOW states on it's non-organic version that it is 100% Hawaiian. There is no indication on this organic version of its origin. I am curious what is the difference. Taste-wise, this organic version tastes more sea-weedy, whereas the Hawaiian non-organic tastes sweeter and more pleasant. I wonder where the organic comes from.
