About Kokoro Care Yuzu Package: Japan’s Prized Citrus What’s Inside Buy Contact
Kokoro Care delivers Japan's finest local ingredients through artisanal products made by regional farmers and makers. From remote mountain regions to coastal villages, each ingredient reflects the unique character and culture of Japan and the generations of care that went into cultivating it.
One of these local ingredients is yuzu — Japan's prized citrus fruit cherished for its fresh, bright aroma and signature sweet tart flavor. Reflecting the Japanese principle of "mottainai", or avoiding waste, the entire fruit is used, from the zest to the juice, adding yuzu's delightful citrus flavor to drinks, desserts and seasonal foods.
Our selection of yuzu products are some of Japan's finest. Made without chemicals, MSG, or high fructose corn syrup, each product allows yuzu's natural flavor to shine!
Yuzu: Japan's Prized Citrus
Japan is home to over 40 varieties of citrus fruits, but one has become its most beloved: yuzu. With its distinct bright yellow color, signature sweet yet tart flavor, and refreshing floral, citrus aroma, yuzu has woven itself into the seasonal rhythms of Japanese culture and life, appearing in drinks and foods, and even traditional winter baths.
Yuzu has a delightful flavor profile — with hints of lemon, mandarin orange and grapefruit. Harvested in late autumn and early winter, yuzu trees take many years to bear fruit, making each harvest precious and the fruit highly valued.

Reviews From Our Customers
★★★★★
The real thing! --- This syrup has a true yuzu fragrance and flavor. A little goes a long way. My only criticism would be the cost; for a small amount it is quite expensive. I'm guessing it is about 4-6 ounces - neither the bottle nor the website say the quantity.
★★★★★
Excellent on ice cream --- Get some good quality vanilla ice cream, and drizzle the yuzu syrup over it. Finish with nuts and whipping cream. Fantastic !!
★★★★★
Cocktails best friend --- Rich yuzu flavor, tangy and sweet makes beautiful and delicious cocktails! I mixed it with a violet infused vodka and sparkling water. The acidity turns the violet from purple to pink and is absolutely gorgeous.
★★★★★
Fantastic! --- I love these little pieces of summery cirtusy sweetness! They can be used many ways, but I love to sprinkle them in with granola for added tang and depth of flavor.
★★★★★
Amazing --- These are so good for snacking on. Highly recommend!
★★★★★
Great for snacking or baking. --- We discovered these treats in a subscription box and had to order more. My son loves to snack on them and my wife makes killer yuzu scones and pound cake with Honey Yuzu Peels for an extra boost of flavor.
