Sukang Waray: A Vinegar Story Worth Telling
Jayson Pascual

What if the vinegar they used to ignore… became the vinegar everyone talks about?

From roadside containers to the world stage—this is the story of Sukang Waray.

Once overlooked, often sold in reused bottles by hardworking coconut farmers along the roads of Samar, our local artisan vinegar was seen as “cheap,” “common,” even “unsanitary.” But what they didn’t see was the heart, grit, and tradition behind every drop.

And now?

This once-unknown vinegar crafted by our community has been featured in the prestigious Flavor Finds of IFEX 2025, capturing the attention of foreign buyers and food enthusiasts globally.

Axel Integrated Farm, a small farm from the coastal town of Talalora, Samar, proudly stood alongside international brands in its first-ever international event. Sukang Waray stood out—not because of fancy packaging, nor big budgets, but because it embodies heritage, honesty, and unmatched flavor.

From humble roadside bottles to the prestigious shelves of tomorrow, this achievement celebrates every farmer who persevered, even when no one was watching.

Please help us share this incredible story—because every bottle of Sukang Waray carries the dream of an entire community.
