1
What is UMAMI GRANOLA?

UMAMI GRANOLA is the first Cantonese breakfast granola, with two small-batch blends from the culinary traditions of Guangzhou and Hong Kong.

Learn more about our approach.

Why Cantonese?

Cantonese culinary tradition is specific, not broadly Asian, not broadly Chinese. The fermented depth of dim sum, the floral sweetness of tong sui, the ingredient knowledge passed through generations of Cantonese family kitchens. UMAMI GRANOLA was founded by a first-generation Cantonese American. This is not borrowed inspiration. This is the tradition. Read our philosophy.

3
Is this granola sweet or savory?

Both, by design. Dragon-Eyed Wolf, tong sui granola, is floral sweetness. Dau-Si-Do, dim sum granola, is savory umami. The Signature Duo carries both.

4
What does the Dragon-Eyed Wolf blend taste like?

Dragon-Eyed Wolf, tong sui granola, opens with the gentle tartness of goji berries, deepens into the caramel-like complexity of longan, and settles into the richness of condensed milk. Floral sweetness that layers and evolves.

5
What does the Dau-Si-Do blend taste like?

Dau-Si-Do, dim sum granola, opens with the earthy depth of fermented black soybeans and hoisin, savory, complex, deeply satisfying. Fresh ginger lifts it with aromatic warmth. The fifth taste, the one that makes breakfast feel complete.

6
How are the ingredients sourced?

Every ingredient in UMAMI GRANOLA is selected by its founder, a first-generation Cantonese American with firsthand knowledge of these ingredients and the culinary traditions behind them. Discover the ingredients.
