Chura Kokuto.
Okinawan black sugar from Iriomote Island.

Single origin. Unrefined. Certified.

What makes it different.

Pure sugarcane juice from Iriomote Island, slowly reduced until nothing remains but the cane itself.

No refining. No additives. No blending.
What you get is the raw mineral depth
of one island's soil — in every spoonful.

A deep, savory sweetness with a quiet
edge of bitterness — the backbone that
lets it stand up to coffee, steak, or chocolate.
