What makes yuzu special?
Yuzu is a Japanese citrus prized for its layered aroma—think lemon, mandarin, and grapefruit with a whisper of floral peel. It’s vivid without being harsh, bringing top-note sparkle and long-lasting lift. In culinary use, yuzu shines when you want brightness without overwhelming sweetness, which is why bartenders, bakers, and chefs love it.

How to use it
Start low and build to taste—this extract is concentrated. For beverages, begin with 2–6 drops (or 0.10–0.25% by weight) per 8–12 oz and adjust. In baking, add to your wet ingredients, tasting and fine-tuning the batter or frosting before finalizing. Pairings that sing: vanilla, coconut, ginger, honey, white chocolate, cucumber, basil, and black sesame.
