It shows spread in different regions in Turkey. Particularly, it is used as sour in Anatolia. Sumac sour is usually consumed in south provinces in Turkey.  </span> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:22px;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;text-align:justify;"> <span lang="en-us" style="font-size:10pt;line-height:20px;font-family:’Times New Roman’, serif;" xml:lang="en-us">In the study, three Gram (-), three Gram (+) and 1 yeast strains obtained from the culture collection of the Microbiology Laboratory of Ordu University were used.
