A liniment, a puree, jams, spreads and a juice with Rj-Sun Tropical Herbs and Fruits you have a lot of options to choose from. Among all the Kahimunan entrees that I have mingled with Rj-Sun was one of the most unique because of the variety of products.

Take this from me: I’m a fan of SHIGA and has even sent bottles abroad to my fiancée. I spoke to Mildred Borja, SHIGA’s Marketing Manager at the recently concluded Kahimunan 2017. I bagged this chance to learn more about SHIGA. How SHIGA Started In the start of our conversation, Mildred recalled that they started with CHIGA then later changed it to SHIGA which meant “Sili sa Higaonons”.
