Sri Lanka's
SWEET SECRET

Coveted by the island’s ancient kings and at least one sweet-toothed croc alike, Kimbula Kithul’s smoky-sweet & dark-golden syrup produced from the flower sap of the towering kithul (fishtail palm) tree is a uniquely Sri Lankan food treasure.

This is like the ultimate maple syrup – rich, savoury with a smokey spice that is quite unique. The authentic coating sweetness of a dark honey, with a vegetal brightness that is a wonderful surprise in dishes and drinks. Amazing stuff!

Having brought back kithul treacle from Sri Lanka in the past, I can attest that Kimbula's is the best I've tried...

The product is incredible! .. Loved the umami/ savoury/sweet profile… While there are some similarities with maple, the product is entirely unique and could really help create some very interesting combinations.

Kithul syrup is the best kept secret in sweeteners. It's like a punchy, umami take on maple syrup and Kimbula are damn good at it. Good luck not putting it on or in everything you eat!

The
SECRET KEEPERS

The know-how of kithul is alone held by Sri Lankan farmers and families who have preserved this island secret for generations.

Masterful tappers climb 40 feet up on handmade ladders 3-4 times a day to extract a translucent yellow sap that is dehydrated over heat - (8:1) - to form syrup.

This homespun kithul presents in a range of golden hues and fruity-to-smoky flavour notes reflecting variations in environment, biology, and each small-holder's tapping and crafting process. Unfortunately, in mass sourcing & production kithul often then sees refined sugar addition and a standardization of its taste to 'sugary'. Our aim at Kimbula, therefore, is a return to the roots - going straight to farmers to select, then refine and craft small batch taster's blends of pure kithul.

The result - a signature syrup that delivers on taste & quality while retaining its wild-crafted magic. In valuing pure kithul you support & respect the livelihood & craftsmanship of this globally unique farming community.
