[Anmyeondo] Organic Taeyangcho Gochugaru

100% Organic Gochugaru

[Anmyeondo] Organic Taeyangcho Gochugaru (500g & 1kg)

  • Certified organic in Korea
  • Grown on Anmyeon Island
  • Sun-dried taeyangcho
  • Balanced, smooth heat

This premium gochugaru, Taejabi Organic Taeyangcho Gochugaru (태자비 유기농 태양초 고춧가루), is made from organically grown Korean red chili peppers cultivated on Anmyeon Island, a coastal region in Taean County on Korea’s west coast.

Steady sunshine and cool ocean breezes make Anmyeon Island an ideal place to grow high-quality chili peppers. All peppers are grown with certified organic farming methods, free from synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.

After harvest, the peppers are de-seeded and naturally sun-dried (태양초, taeyangcho) rather than put through industrial dehydrators. This traditional drying deepens the flavor and keeps the peppers’ natural character. Once fully dried, they are ground into a medium-coarse flake and packed promptly to stay fresh.

The result is a vibrant red gochugaru that brings rich color and depth to kimchi, gamja-tang, tteokbokki and dakdori-tang, so they look as good as they taste.

What sets it apart is its balanced heat. It isn’t overly spicy, and a subtle natural sweetness rounds out the flavor. If you’re looking for truly 100% organic gochugaru, this is it.

Great Product

I re-ordered this gochugaru because I recently ran out. It's simply the best gochugar I've tried. It has a very nice flavour and just the right amount of spice. And another big plus: it's organic. I'll use it to make some kimchi soon.

Anmyeondo’s fertile, well-drained soil and steady sea breeze make it ideal farmland, and the salty air adds to the peppers’ robust flavor.
