Traditionally fermented, original sauerkraut is made with finely sliced green and purple cabbage. The beautiful process of lacto-fermentation brings a distinctive sour taste in the cabbage after breaking down the naturally occurring sugars. We add dill, juniper berries and caraway for the additional savour, giving you a probiotic food that is both healthy and palatable. Sauerkraut offers nutrition and health benefits far beyond those of fresh cabbage.

    Flavour Profile

    Taste: Original Sauerkraut is a harmonious blend of tangy and salty flavours. The cabbage's natural sweetness balances with the tang from fermentation, while Himalayan Pink Salt, dill, juniper berries, and caraway add a herbaceous and slightly piney undertones.

    Texture and mouthfeel: This sauerkraut boasts a crisp and slightly crunchy texture, maintaining the cabbage's freshness. The fermentation process adds a pleasant juiciness, creating a well-rounded and invigorating experience that leaves a clean, refreshing sensation on the palate.

    Smell: The aroma of Original Sauerkraut is a delightful blend of earthiness and herbal notes. The fermentation process releases a mildly pungent, tangy scent, while dill and juniper berries contribute a subtle herbal fragrance. The overall smell is fresh, inviting, and promises a wholesome and flavorful culinary experience.
