Sumac is an ancient spice made from the dried berries of the wild sumac shrub (Rhus coriaria), native to the Middle East and Mediterranean. Its name comes from the Aramaic word summaq, meaning “red,” a nod to its deep crimson hue.

Long before lemons were widely used in Europe, sumac was prized by the Romans and Greeks as a natural souring agent in cooking and medicine. Across the Levant, it became a cornerstone of everyday cuisine, adding bright, tangy acidity to dishes like fattoush, grilled meats, and za’atar blends.

Today, sumac remains a defining flavour of Middle Eastern cooking, valued for its vibrant citrus-like sharpness and its ability to lift dishes with effortless brightness.

Sumac crushed is made the traditional way in small batches to preserve its natural colour, brightness, and tangy flavour.

Ripe berries are harvested, naturally sun-dried, then gently crushed and sifted to remove the seed, leaving only the vibrant outer husk where the flavour lives.

The result is 100% pure sumac, bright, lemony, and naturally tart.
