Always delicious Kimchi. No mark down as they are always fresh Kimchi. But my last batch, didn't have the sizzle. It didn't ferment as well. Perhaps not enough fermenting starter? I don't know ow... See more

I've been eating Mr Kimchi for years now, it's a bit on the pricey side but it's honestly the best kimchi you can get in the UK where there are no local Korean shops. Supermarket kimchi is so bland... See more

Just had my second 2KG bag of Kimchi delivered and I've been so excited! The first bag was so delicious. I let it ferment at room temperature for a few days before decanting into a tall sealed jar a... See more

I recently bought kimchi from this shop, and I must say, the quality is just like homemade. It tastes fresh, without that mass-produced flavor you often get from bigger brands. I'm really happy I fou... See more

Loyal and returning customer

Loyal and returning customer. Fantastic kimchi, as always and lovely to try the DIY Kimchi Paste I mixed it in with some pickles and water chestnuts and it was delicious. Thanks as always.

Tasty Kimchi

Tasty Kimchi - Delivered promptly. As described this had been made to order just before sending and required a couple of days to develop and ferment. I prefer my Kimchi tangy and a few days it was tasting good and I transferred the tubs to the fridge. I'll probably be buying more when I finish this batch, probably a bulk pack next time!

Delicious Authentic Kimchi 5*

Arrived really quickly, delicious kimchi. I would buy again and definitely recommend. So glad someone is doing the hard work for me :) and for an authentic kimchi with shrimp paste, unlike the "kimchi" wannabes without shrimp paste that you find in shops. This is the real deal, worth every penny!
The kimchi has to be left in the bag ferment for 2 days then be repackaged and refrigerated. The bag will bloat as the fermentation takes place so be sure to follow the instructions to avoid a cabbage explosion in your kitchen.

I wish this business every success!
Thank you.

Great Kimchi!

I have been regularly ordering Kimchi from Mr Kimchi for over 3 years - I used to drive to a local Korean restaurant to buy it.
This is much nicer and they deliver to your door!
You need to like it spicy...

Excellent Kimchi

Excellent Kimchi, the best I have tasted! I keep ordering from this great company and their product has been consistently excellent. This is probably my 10th order.
It arrives in excellent condition and the instructions are very easy to follow.
It helps my gut health and it stops heartburn for me.

Love the Kimchi!

I found Mr Kimchi when I was looking for fresh Kimchi. It is so tasty that I could not wait for it to ferment. I bought 2kg but finished half of it within 2 days because I could not wait until its fermentation. Now, the half of it is fermented and it tastes even better. It is such an appetiser and good for your gut health. My husband who has loss of appetite due to cancer says "this Kimchi is helping him to taste other food better". I will definitely buy Mr Kimchi's kimchi again.

Thank You.
