A Kimchi for every palate
Our kimchi is unpasteurized and alive. We offer two distinct versions, each achieving a specific balance of sourness and heat. There's a perfect jar waiting for you.
The Calm- Mild Kimchi
Light, crisp, and gently spicy. Naturally fermented and alive with real probiotics. A fresh, everyday way to support your gut.
Ingredients:
Napa cabbage, carrot, spring onion, yellow onion, apple, garlic, ginger, fish sauce, Turkish chili pepper, sea salt.
How to enjoy it:
Pairs beautifully with grilled (old) cheese toasties, steamed rice, noodle bowls, soups, avocado toast or fresh salads. Enjoy it as a side, a topping, or simply straight from the jar.
Fresh flow kimchi is available:
212 ml glass jar with a net weight of 120 g.

Good to know:
Natural Turkish chili flakes mean every batch gets to have its own personality and color.
Our kimchi is handmade with small batches, packed in leak-proof glass jars and continues to fermenting during delivery. When opened you might feel a pressure. This is normal. Please refrigerate when arrived. You can enjoy it for several weeks.
