[Bangyudang] Toasted Sesame Oil (S4 · Medium-High Roast)
- 100% Korea-grown sesame
- Medium-high roast
- 1 ingredient
- Vegan & HACCP-certified
Most sesame oil is made fast. Bangyudang's isn't.
For over 50 years in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do, Bangyudang has roasted a single ingredient, Korean sesame, with a level of precision most makers gave up on long ago. Every seed is moisture-calibrated before roasting. Every batch is watched for temperature, time and color, cooled fast the moment the roast peaks, then micro-filtered for purity.
The result is S4 (방유당 헤리티지 참기름 S4), Bangyudang's boldest sesame oil and their signature: rich, smoky and deeply nutty, with a long finish that stays with you.
While many brands cut costs with imported sesame seeds, Bangyudang uses only 100% Korea-grown sesame, a difference you can taste from the very first drop.
Best as a finishing oil. Drizzle it over rice bowls, noodles, grilled vegetables or soups just before serving. 1–2 tablespoons a day is all you need.

방유당 헤리티지 참기름 S4
Bangyudang Heritage, est. 1972
Most sesame oil is made fast. Bangyudang's isn't. For over 50 years in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do, Bangyudang has roasted one ingredient, Korean sesame, with a level of care most makers gave up on long ago.
Every seed is moisture-checked before roasting. Every batch is watched for temperature, time and color, cooled fast the moment the roast peaks, then micro-filtered.
S4 is the result: Bangyudang's boldest sesame oil, and their signature. Rich, smoky and deeply nutty, with a long finish. While many brands cut costs with imported seeds, Bangyudang uses only 100% Korea-grown sesame.
S4: medium-high roast
Deep, nutty and perfectly roasted, never burnt. It comes in two sizes, a 200 mL and a 320 mL bottle.
Deep and nutty, slow-roasted
A deep, intense nutty aroma from a slow, bold roast, with rich, lasting depth and a lingering finish.
What to use it on
Braised and grilled dishes, strongly seasoned food, even dairy-based dessert toppings. Anywhere you want the sesame flavor to stand out.
S4 or S2?
S4 (medium-high roast) is deeper and bolder, with a thicker, smokier nuttiness. It's the one for stronger dishes where you want the sesame to come through.
S2 (medium-light roast) is lighter and cleaner, with a softer nutty aroma. It suits dressings, namul and lightly seasoned food.
Time-honored, bottled for you
The bottles draw on gilsanghwa (吉祥花), Korea's traditional auspicious flower patterns, and are meant to reflect the value of time.
Keep it in a cool pantry, not the fridge
Oil has five enemies: light, oxygen, heat, moisture, and metals and enzymes.
Store the bottle indoors at room temperature (59–68°F / 15–20°C), away from direct light. Sunlight and heat speed up oxidation, and in the fridge, condensation can add moisture that dulls the oil.
Bangyudang, since 1972
Bangyudang is a seed roaster in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. They've been roasting grains since 1972; this photo is from the early days.
Half a century at the roaster
Over 50 years, the owner (pictured) has mastered the art of grain roasting. Bangyudang specializes in traditional Korean grains and oils.
What makes it different?
Moisture. The water left in a washed, dried seed decides its aroma: too much and the oil turns dull and grassy, too little and it scorches. Bangyudang sets it just right for each seed.
Flame. A proprietary 3-stage radiant-heat roast sets the depth of flavor, from soft to boldly nutty.
Rapid cooling. The moment roasting ends, the seeds are cooled fast to lock the aroma in at its peak.
Micro-filtration. Impurities are filtered out, so the oil stays clear and stable from the first drop to the last.
BGST process and technology
Bangyudang goes beyond simple roasting with what it calls BGST: moisture set for each seed variety, far-infrared roasting that heats every grain evenly to the core, rapid cooling to lock in the aroma, and research-grade filtration that cuts the compounds behind rancidity.
Far-infrared roasting
Far-infrared heat reaches evenly into the core of every seed. Bangyudang says this raises the phenolic content and antioxidant capacity of the sesame, keeps the oil fresh for longer, deepens the flavor and cuts bitterness for a smoother finish.
HACCP-certified
Bangyudang's sesame and perilla oil lines are HACCP-certified at every stage, from roasting through filtering and bottling.
Vegan-certified
Registered with The Vegan Society: 100% plant-based, with no animal-derived ingredients.
How to enjoy it
Use it as a finishing oil: drizzle over rice bowls, noodles, grilled vegetables or soups just before serving. 1–2 tablespoons a day is plenty.
