Jeju Mandarin Vinegar - Chosanjung - 270 ml

Artisanal tangerine vinegar made from tangerines harvested on Jeju Island.

Product Description and Manufacturing Process

This tangerine vinegar is made exclusively from tangerines from Jeju Island, South Korea. Each step of the process is carried out traditionally, ensuring superior quality.

Harvesting the tangerines: Jeju farmers harvest ripe, bright yellow tangerines from trees carefully tended throughout the year.

Pressing and cooking: The tangerine juice is extracted, then slowly concentrated in terracotta pots in a warm environment. This cooking process develops a natural sweetness.

Fermentation and maturation: The concentrated juice is then fermented in terracotta pots for over 500 days, giving it a thick texture and unique sweet flavor, while developing its richness of flavors. Each 270 ml bottle contains the equivalent of 22 concentrated tangerines.

How to use Tangerine Vinegar:
