Emiko Taniguchi from Iizaka Onsen, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan –
In the quaint town of Iizaka, Japan, where whispers of history drift through bamboo groves and ancient roads weave stories untold, tasting the OLOSSI Sweet Balloon Flower Root Snack felt like uncovering a small treasure. Each piece exudes an earthy essence that’s intricately tied to Korean heritage. Its chewy embrace tantalizes my taste buds—delightfully sweet yet grounded by hints of bitterness from doraji; this delicacy gently sings nature’s song while echoing familial warmth found in kitchen rituals across generations. Simply exquisite—a rare find indeed! Perfect for a quiet evening over tea or as sustenance for life’s bustling moments.
Giulia Bellini from Firenze, Italia –
Una vera delizia per chi ama il gusto autentico! Ho recentemente provato gli snack di radice di fiore palloncino Doraji Jeonggwa e sono rimasto colpito dalla loro consistenza morbida e gommosa. Ogni morso racconta una storia, intrecciando la dolcezza naturale con l’amaro sottile che solo il doraji può offrire. Inoltre, sapere che non ci sono additivi artificiali fa sentire bene al momento dello spuntino. La tradizione è palpabile in ogni boccone; sembra quasi un ricordo d’infanzia rievocato attraverso sapori semplici ma raffinati. Un perfetto assaggio della cultura coreana sul palcoscenico mondiale!
