Overview

Many people enjoy making yuzu marmalade for tea during winter. Yuzu has a yellow color and a tart aroma, and it grows throughout East Asia. In South Korea, people began cultivating the fruit beginning in the Silla Dynasty when people presented it to the King. Full of Vitamin C and citric acid, yuzu is widely known as natural medicine for cold. It is also especially effective for reducing fatigue. Because it has a much stronger citric flavor and aroma than tangerines and oranges, yuzu is usually made into marmalade first and then served as a cup of hot tea. In 2009, a brand of Golden Yuzu was invented, spawning off a series of high-quality products. The Golden Yuzu juice was selected as Outstanding Brand of Hi-Seoul in 2016. The juice is made from carefully selected yuzu from Goheung, Southern Jeolla Province where the region’s sunlight, soil, and sea wind are ideal for cultivating the fruit. Unlike other yuzu marmalades, the Golden Yuzu juice gets rid of the yuzu skin, extracting only the juice. Adding Korean honey and oligofructose (FOS) into the juice reduces sweetness while emphasizing the fruit’s natural flavor. The Golden Yuzu brand also provides the juice in the form of sticks, making it convenient for people to enjoy the product in various forms—juice, cocktails, yogurts, and others. Furthermore, one can also consume the product as a replacement for sugar when making salad dressing or cooking pork.
