Bar
Highballs, sours, daiquiris, margaritas and spritzes. Also good in non-alcoholic drinks with soda, tonic or tea.
Kitchen
Ponzu, dressings, marinades and butter sauces. Add a few drops to sashimi, grilled fish, oysters and hot pot.
Pastry
Curd, sorbet, cheesecake, jelly, ganache and glaze. The aroma stays clear in cold desserts.
Food and drink makers
An ingredient for soda, tea, craft beer, kombucha, jam, sauces and dressings.
- Shake the pouch before use. Natural yuzu oil and pulp can settle.

About yuzu
A Japanese citrus with a strong aroma
Yuzu is a citrus fruit grown in the mountain areas of Japan. The fruit turns yellow in late autumn. People use the juice and the peel, not the whole fruit.
Fresh yuzu is seasonal and hard to find outside Japan. With 100% juice, you can use yuzu all year.
From Wakayama
Where Japanese citrus grows
Wakayama is one of the main citrus regions of Japan. Steep terraces, stone walls, sea wind and long hours of sun.
The orchards climb the hillsides. Farmers carry the harvest down the slope on small monorails and farm trucks.
Made in Wakayama. The juice is pressed and packed by a fruit juice maker in Wakayama, which works with citrus, peaches, yuzu and ume from the region. We confirm the specification with the maker for each order.
