About this product
Surig Citro-Essenz is a lemon-flavoured liquid acidulant in a 390 ml bottle from the German brand Surig.[1] Its front label says it is four times stronger than lemon juice, and its nutrition panel is printed for the essence diluted with three times its volume of water.[2][3] Codecheck lists the ingredients as water, citric acid and flavouring and names Speyer & Grund as operator.[4] Speyer & Grund, based in Mainz, has sold its vinegar essence under the Surig name since 1973.[5][6] A "SURIG Citroessenz" word and figure mark was filed in 2006.[7]
More about this product
The 2018 photos show the waisted glass bottle; Speyer & Grund moved Surig essence from glass to PET in 2017.[5] Surig's site now presents a liquid Zitronensäure 390 ml with the same dilution note, under barcode 4003387001062; no source found says it replaced this article.[8][9] The old Barcodepedia page recorded it in 2007 as "Surig Citroessenz 400ml".[10]

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.
- Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
- Context: 2 / 3 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
- Label photographs: 0 / 2 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
- German label on the glass bottle (2018 photos): nutrient evidence: 8 / 8 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
- ingredients · unknown: No photo of the ingredient list was found; the rows follow one secondary transcription (codecheck).
- markets · unknown: No readable retailer listing ties this GTIN to a country. The mynetfair trade listing naming the GTIN answers 403, and food-service-frater.de and ecolebensmittel.com list "Citro-Essenz 390 ml" without a barcode or pack format and may describe the PET successor. country_of_sale is left empty.
- identity · disputed: Net content: Open Food Facts and codecheck give 390 ml; the mynetfair listing title reads "400g (390 Milliliter)"; the 2007 Barcodepedia title said 400ml. Not visible in the photos.
- identity · unknown: Surig now sells "Zitronensäure" 390 ml (04003387001062) with the same diluted nutrition footnote; no source says it replaced Citro-Essenz, so status and superseded_by are left empty.
- markets · unknown: Codecheck gives "Herkunft: Deutschland" (contributor field); country_of_origin is left empty until the pack is read.
- evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
