Premium Ssuk Powder, Korean Mugwort for Latte, Ssanggye
The comforting drink of Seoul's cafes. The herbal, caffeine-free alternative to matcha.
Bring the latest K-Cafe trend into your kitchen with the Ssuk (mugwort) powder from the prestigious Korean house Ssanggye. An emblematic ingredient of Korean life, mugwort has been used for centuries in traditional Korean cooking and drinks.
This finely ground, delicately sweetened powder was designed to instantly make the famous Ssuk Latte, a creamy and deeply comforting drink, 100% caffeine-free.
Ingredients: white sugar, ssuk powder (Korean mugwort) 12%. No dairy ingredient: the powder is prepared with the milk or plant-based drink of your choice.
Allergens: may contain traces of milk, soy, buckwheat and peach (made in a facility that handles these products).
Taste Experience: Often compared to matcha for its beautiful emerald colour, Ssuk has a unique aromatic profile. It reveals deep herbal notes, a vegetal softness reminiscent of nature after the rain, and a subtle roasted touch on the finish.
The Home Cafe Ritual (generous 500g bag):
Hot Ssuk Latte: Mix 2 to 3 tablespoons of powder with a little hot water, then pour in hot, frothy milk (or oat milk).
Iced Ssuk Latte: Dilute the powder, add ice cubes and top with cold milk for an indulgent, refreshing break.
Ssanggye Craftsmanship: An exceptional quality guarantee from one of South Korea's greatest traditional tea houses.
