Om

Snabba fakta: Fisksåsproduktionen på Phu Quoc går tillbaka över 200 år, och den här fabriken använder fortfarande traditionella trätunnor som rymmer upp till 10 ton vardera. Ön producerar cirka 30 miljoner liter fisksås årligen, och den finaste kvaliteten lagras i 12 till 15 månader i dessa enorma kar.

Höjdpunkter: Varje trätunna är handgjord av inhemskt boi loi-trä, en trädart som bara växer på Phu Quoc och som ger såsen en specifik arom under lagringen. Arbetarna trampar fortfarande fisk- och saltblandningen barfota inne i tunnorna, en traditionell metod som tros ge den mest jämna fermenteringen.

Insidertips

  • Skip the gift shop at the end and ask to taste the 15-month aged sauce instead of the standard 6-month batch.
  • Wear closed-toe shoes as the factory floor can be slippery from oil residue and fish drippings.
  • Bring a small bottle or container to buy the premium grade sauce, they sell refills from the barrel at bulk prices.
  • Photography is allowed but avoid using flash near the fermentation barrels as light can affect the aging process.
