Four directions guided by bright acidity and aroma
KODAKARA Yuzu is a fruit liqueur where the bright aroma and firm acidity of Kochi-grown yuzu are wrapped in measured sweetness. What follows is not a pairing the producer has presented officially, but a reading drawn from the aroma and taste recorded on this page.
There is a principle that layering acidity into the umami-and-salt balance of Japanese cooking creates a new balance, a role yuzu’s acidity is well suited to. Citrus aroma is also described as sharing a direction with seafood aroma, a lens that applies to sashimi and steamed fish.
