Korean Traditional 100% Sesame Oil 12oz (참기름)

The best Perilla oil in the US. I always buy Perilla oil from Korea when I visit there once a year. I could not visit Korea in this year due to COVID19. I tried several different brand of Perilla oil sold at Asian store and Amazon. Not even close to the original Perilla oil. When I order this one I was kind of skeptical but wanted to trust review and also the price was about the good quality one. I got the oil today, opened the bottle, this is the best one I have purchased in the US, almost like one that I brought from Korea. My 16 year old son who loves Perilla oil, smelled the oil and said, “finally.” If anyone looking for authentic Korean Perilla oil, this is the best one. Must try!!!!

The flavor is fresh and excellent. I used to add this oil for salad and stews. Recently I started Low Carb High Fat diet eating a half of avocado with sprinkle of Himalayan salt and perillla oil. It's very tasty. Perillla oil is a source of omega-3. Mister. Kim's perillla oil is the best one so far. The package was sent by Mr. Kim, which means the oil is properly maintained and that's why it tastes so great. I tried other korean products but this is the best!

I used to stop by Mr. Kim’s store to get perilla oil and roasted seaweed whenever I visit Atlanta GA.When I saw Mr. Kim’s perilla oil here on Amazon, I ordered one bottle just to try it.I wonder if this oil is really from Mr. Kim’s that I know of.I wasted 32 dollars for something it’s not eatable.

OMG! This stuff is delicious! I tried saving money by ordering a different brand initially , but when it arrived it was clear and flavorless. So I returned it and ordered this one in its place and it is everything I hoped for and more. Beautiful rich dark color and delicious toasty flavor. I poured it over a salad last night and can't wait to start cooking with it.

The really common ottogi brand oil tastes more like peanuts. This oil for whatever reason is bitter, probably from roasting. Ottogi is lighter in color, more gold than brown. This preparation is probably more roasted. The peanut flavor of the Ottogi oil is really good, so I have to rate this slightly bitter oil pretty low in comparison. It's not going to be good for flavoring things unless you want a more sesame kind of flavor.

It's a bit expensive if you only see the price, but the quality of the product is very goodI just ordered another one.

We've been sauteing rehydrated Korean veggies using this toasted perilla oil and love the incredible umami taste this oil brings to the dishes. Happy we learned about it.

This is better than I thought also taste is good but bottle is light color should be Dark color bottle that way oil last little longer
