Pure Yuzu Essence… Raw! Unprocessed! and bold!

Description

It is raw and unprocessed HACCP-certified Unpasteurized Frozen Yuzu Juice. Pasteurization typically involves heating the juice to kill bacteria and extend shelf life, but it can also alter the juice’s taste and nutritional content. This juice is not heat-treated, which means it retains the full range of the fruit’s natural flavors, nutrients, and aroma. The juice is typically frozen shortly after extraction to lock in its peak freshness. Kito Yuzu’s characteristics of aroma and acidity can’t be found in other strains of yuzu. The reason Kito produce yuzu with a strong aroma is because of the altitude. Yuzu is planted 300-500 metres above sea level in the basin between the mountains. The Kito area also has a lot of rain. (The Kito area holds the record for the highest annual rainfall in Shikoku and the highest short-term rainfall in Japan). The ground temperature is minus 10 degrees and the summer ground temperature is over 40 degrees. This polarization gives Kito yuzu its intense aroma, thick skin and acidic flavour.
