THE HERO OF MAGHARET JEITA

Hamod El Hosrum — حامض الحصرم

Before lemons became widespread in the Lebanese mountains, our ancestors depended entirely on Hamoud El Hosroum. Fresh unripe sour grapes, harvested in the cool mountain mornings of Mount Lebanon and cold-pressed with coarse sea salt.

OUR ORIGINS IN JEITA

Some Stories Are Written, Ours Are Bottled

Established in 1987 in the heart of Keserwan near the majestic limestone caves of Jeita, Magharet Jeita Products was founded with a singular purpose: to preserve the authentic, unadulterated flavors of Lebanese mountain terroir.

From hand-harvesting unripe sour green grapes in family orchards to slow sun-aging in glass vessels, our methods have remained untouched by industrial shortcuts. We bottle pure Lebanon for families who appreciate honest, wholesome food.
