Sudachi Syrup - A citrus the size of a golf ball that packs a flavorful punch!

The first sip is so delightful. It's a combination of familiarity—tastes a bit like lime, a bit like mandarin, a bit like yuzu, but with less acidity—and something totally new. Once you get past the citrus flavor, you experience a wonderfully balanced sweet-and-sour taste.

Petrizzelli Cortina Olive Oil from Puglia - Monocultivar Coratina olive!

To the nose, this olive oil has some punch. You can tell with just a whiff that it's going to have great flavor. The first spoonful reveals the oil to be light and fluffy. It dissipates quickly on the tongue and in the mouth. And then, almost as if it misses the middle of the mouth, it goes right back to the top of your throat, spicy and kicky, inciting a good cough.

La Trinquelinette Apricot Jam

This jam is by all standards, amazing! It tastes like fresh apricots, though never sharp or sour, it is a spoonful of a sweet treat.

The flavor of apricot, the way a freshly bitten fruit would be, is all there, swelling like a balloon rising, the smoothness of the flavor envelops all the senses, with the right cheek filling more than the left and then the tongue feels the weight of the flavor. And then suddenly you realize the physical being is gone, and all you are tasting is the memory!

Salt and Pepper Toasted Corn

The Salt and Pepper Toasted Corn Nuts are not just plain with pepper. They instead deliver a punchy peppery pow that adds a third dimension to the salt, oil, and corn.

What you will find, just like the other two flavors, is some kind of “special sauce” – aka technique – that makes the seasonings stick to the corn so that each and every kernel is flavored with just the right amount of magic.

Lummi Island Wild Ventresca Tuna

My new favorite tuna to eat straight out of the can.

Ventresca, is from the Italian word for belly, ventre. Ventresca tuna is considered to be the best canned tuna you can find. And this can does not disappoint!

This tuna is soft supple delicious, crazy good, gentle, flavorful, and amazing! Did I say crazy good?

Zaru Soba Buckwheat Noodles with Yam

Buckwheat soba noodles are one of Japan's best-loved foods. They are so popular that certain restaurants have nothing but these noodles on their menus.

These delicious noodles take just minutes to prepare in hot water and have a distinctive nutty flavor that teams well with cold dashi broth, scallions, sesame oil and bean sprouts. This common preparation can also be embellished with shitake, pork, vegetables and tempura.

Florian Candied Cherries

Florian Cherries made from premium quality fruit and no coating is used after the candying process so that optimum moist texture and natural fruit crunch are achieved.

These gorgeous candied red cherries are packaged immediately to retain their full flavor. They are of the Bigarreaux variety, and these baking cherries are perfect for a whole host of applications.

Fantastic, thanks Drew! You all are terrific to work with, I appreciate it. All the best.
