Tangy & Fresh Fruit

FLAVOR PROFILE HINT OF ACIDITY

SECONDARY NOTES YUZU

Using only the highest quality yuzu from Japan, YUZU INSPIRATION brings the unique flavor of yuzu to new pastry preparations. Its naturally sweet, tangy flavor with a hint of bitterness blends perfectly with other ingredients, bringing out their flavors.

This treasured fruit, Yuzu, is an icon from Japan with a distinct flavor and character like no other ingredient. Yuzu bursts onto the palate with a unique citrusy flavor. We use only the highest quality yuzu farmed in tiny smallholdings found halfway up mountains in Southeast Japan’s rural Kochi region. The yuzu grows in very small quantities but with outstanding flavor thanks to the citrus-friendly terroir and climate.
