Green Plum Extract: This creation is crafted by marinating kernel-rich plums, harvested directly in Jeollanam province, in sugar and aging them at low temperatures for over 3 years. After the pulp is skimmed off, the stock undergoes a second aging process, resulting in a rich and deep flavour. The versatility of this plum extract is remarkable; it can enhance the flavours of various dishes, including seasoned vegetables, soups, stews, and salad dressings. It can also be diluted in water, milk, or sparkling water for a refreshing beverage option.
Yuja Extract: Meticulously distilled from fresh yuzu fruits nurtured in the gentle embrace of the warm sea breeze from the South Sea, this citron concentrate is a testament to purity. Each citron is thoroughly cleaned, hand-squeezed, and fermented to perfection, resulting in a taste that is wonderfully fresh and naturally sweet. This delightful concentrate is perfect for blending with sparkling water or mixing with yogurt for a delightful salad dressing that truly captures the essence of yuzu's flavour.
Anchovy Extract: Crafted from meticulously aged, fresh anchovies over a span of three years in a subterranean sanctuary, using carefully refined salt and low-temperature conditions. This painstaking maturation process results in a crystal-clear, transparent red fish sauce that resides at the depths of the storage tank, delivering a luxuriously rich and unadulterated flavour profile. This exceptional extract is an ideal as a salt or soy sauce replacement, it enhances the taste of kimchi, seasonings, stir-fries, and stews.
Jeju Mandarin Vinegar: Crafted using traditional methods in loess pottery, this natural fermented fruit vinegar offers a harmonious blend of rich sweetness and tanginess. It serves as a delightful alternative to balsamic vinegar when used as a dressing sauce for salads. Additionally, you can enjoy its detoxifying benefits by diluting 20ml of vinegar in 500ml of water to create a refreshing detox water.
Salicornia Herbacea Salt: Produced by leveling tidal flats and directly harvesting salt from them, this salt is meticulously sourced from the pure top layer of salt, enriched with processed glassworts to develop a deep aromatic quality. Use it as a seasoning or mix a small portion with water to drink.
Pickled Garlic Scape: Crafted from garlic shoots cultivated in Uiseong, nurtured without chemical fertilisers in mineral-rich soil. After consuming the garlic shoots, the leftover brine can be repurposed to make pickles with cucumbers or onions.
Tangerine Treats: These delightful treats are crafted by incorporating undiluted mandarin juice, resulting in a savoury citrus delicacy. For the ultimate experience, try them alongside a cup of tea.

Onion Juice: Crafted from Munsan onions harvested between April and June, this pure and additive-free onion juice is ideal for enjoying during the summer.
