We use only domestic Japanese yuzu and iyokan as our raw materials. This product is a mixture of "pressed vinegar from fully peeled domestic Japanese yuzu" not from concentrate, and straight iyokan juice. Enjoy the intense acidity of the yuzu and the subtle sweetness of the iyokan. *At the time of shipment, all products have at least one month before their best-by date. We spend a lot of time and effort extracting the juice.
We begin with a machine called the "Pelatrice" that uses force to scrape off the outer peel, leaving a white ball of fruit. This is then pressed as far as possible. This method of extraction results in fewer bitter flavonoids and limonoids than conventional extraction with the peel still on. The final product is much more mellow and easy to drink.
