JEJU HALLABONG COOKIES

very good

These are individually wrapped cookies, perfect for stashing in your bag or packing in a lunch. They are crispy and flavorful, with a buttery citrus flavor. However, a look at the ingredient list is offputting. No butter, but margarine made from palm and rapeseed oils, ugh. Also, artificial flavor and sulphur dioxide (a serious allergen for some, including one of our family members). But the worst part is the Prop 65 warning for MERCURY. No, just no. So good tasting, but unhappy about the ingredients.

It was really delicious! Was not dry at all but great texture as well. Not sugary sweet but the taste was gourmet!! I'm ordering more for my sisters and friends.

Wonderful, fresh aroma of oranges on opening. Delicate butter shortbread style cookies, they are one cooker per package. I bought these to travel when I had a small sweet tooth and citrus desserts are a favorite of mine.

Yummy

[Korean Food] Jeju Island Hallabong Cookies | Korean Dessert | 6.77oz, 12ea First impressions: Nice box of individually wrapped cookies. The cookies smell citrusy and sweet. Installation/setup: Open package and eat. Final thoughts: The cookies are hard, like a sugar cookie. and have bits of what seem to be candied citrus peel bits in them. Looking at the picture of a hallabong on the product page reminded me of a minneola or tangelo but they are subtly different. The origins are different as well. The flavor of these cookies are influenced by the citrus tang and they are nice and sweet. The cookies can be broken in the package, but are tasty enough for that not to matter if you are just eating them lol. I like to dunk them in my breakfast tea. I like these and I’m glad I got them. ⭐️1 star - I don't recommend it at all, poor quality. ⭐️⭐️ 2 stars - I don't recommend it, it has multiple faults, or a very high price. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3 stars - It's passable, It has some faults but the quality is ok for what it is. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars - Product quite acceptable, it does what it promises. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars - Product that I totally recommend.

I watch the Korean Englishman series on YouTube, and in a recent episode, they ate hallabong as part of their meal on a Korean aircraft carrier (series on military there). The hallabong is a hybrid orange that's also known as dekopan, Sumo Citrus, or shiranuhi/shiranui. It's known for its sweetness and juiciness, in addition to that bump you see protruding in the product photos. These cookies make me want to try the fruit someday, perhaps fresh from Jeju Island. These cookies remind me of butter cookies in terms of texture - soft and crumbly - but get a little citrus kick from the hallabong. The "orange chips" aren't well-described, but I'm assuming they're candied orange peel. Really tasty! Like a lot of Asian snack foods I've tried, they're individually packaged in foil pouches. If you're getting these for just yourself, it helps you not eat the entire thing at once. These would also be neat to give to kids learning about other countries. I think we have an issue in the US with sometimes forgetting other countries exist (for example, taking for granted that someone posting in English on Reddit must be American), with their own fruits, vegetables, etc. There's already interest in Korea thanks to K-pop groups - show them something like this to introduce a little more about the country.

Love the shortbread cookies! We keep them on hand and enjoy sharing with friends and family. Mostly cookies are whole but unfortunately a couple of times the boxes have had mostly broken cookies.
