Philippine adobo and the culture of vinegar

Adobo is not a single recipe: it is an ancestral preservation technique based on vinegar, soy and garlic, with variants in every region of the archipelago. It is the most representative dish of the Philippines and the one that best exemplifies its unique fusion of Asia and Spain. Our authentic vinegars are the key to getting it right.

Sugarcane vinegar, soy sauce, bay leaf and black pepper. The most internationally recognised
Visayas

Adobo sa gata

Ilocos

Ilocano adobo

The three great regions of the archipelago

The Philippines is organised into three main regions — Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao — each with its own cuisine, its own ingredients and its own distinct character. We import directly from local producers on the most representative islands of each region to bring you the widest possible variety.
