Yuzu, the new Japanese citrus syrup that will become a must-have

There are ingredients that surprise… and others that redefine a recipe. Our Yuzu syrup is one of them.
Made with 20% authentic Japanese Yuzu, a citrus fruit mainly cultivated in Asia and highly prized in Japan for its intense, fresh and deeply distinctive aroma.
A unique ingredient that brings complexity and elegance.

A citrus unlike anything you’ve experienced before
Unlike other citrus fruits, Yuzu is rarely consumed fresh. Its pulp is scarce and slightly bitter, which is why its true value lies in its peel:

  • Exceptionally aromatic
  • Rich in essential oils
  • Widely used in gastronomy and mixology

It is typically used grated, dried or ground to add depth and aroma to sauces, broths and drinks. In syrup form, its potential becomes even more versatile and easy to work with behind the bar.

A distinctive aromatic profile
Yuzu stands out for a profile that combines several citrus nuances in a single ingredient:

  • Freshness
  • Notes reminiscent of lemon, mandarin and grapefruit
  • A subtle, elegant bitterness

This complexity allows you to craft balanced and sophisticated cocktails.

 

How to use Yuzu syrup in mixology
Its versatility makes it ideal for a wide range of creations:

  • Fresh, citrus-forward cocktails
  • Sours and acid-based serves
  • Mocktails and non-alcoholic drinks
  • Signature creations with an aromatic profile

It pairs particularly well with other citrus fruits such as grapefruit, mandarin or bergamot, enhancing their freshness.
It also creates an intriguing contrast with softer, creamier flavours, such as white chocolate syrup, resulting in modern and unexpected combinations.

An ingredient for limitless creativity
Yuzu syrup is more than just a flavour; it’s a creative tool for bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts looking to go one step further.
✔️ Instantly adds freshness
✔️ Elevates the aromatic profile
✔️ Brings complexity without complicating the process

Available in a 100 cl format, designed to deliver performance, consistency and quality in every serve.
