TAKESAN KISHIBORI SOY SAUCE (Original, 24 Fl oz.) Pure artisan Japanese soy sauce. All natural barrel aged 1 year unadulterated and without preservatives

Kishibori Shoyu has elevated my culinary experiences with its exceptional quality and depth of flavor. This premium artisanal Japanese soy sauce truly deserves high praise. The first thing to note is the complexity of its flavor profile. Unlike regular soy sauces, Kishibori Shoyu offers a symphony of tastes – it's not just salty but also carries subtle hints of umami, a slight sweetness, and a deep richness that can only be found in meticulously crafted sauces. Each drop enhances the dish, whether it's used in marinades, as a dipping sauce, or simply drizzled over rice. The aroma of Kishibori Shoyu is another aspect that sets it apart. It has a distinct, inviting scent that heightens the anticipation of the meal. This soy sauce doesn't overpower; it complements and elevates the flavors of various ingredients, making it a versatile addition to any kitchen. I appreciate the commitment to traditional brewing methods, which is evident in the quality of the product. The soy sauce is fermented and aged in barrels, a process that contributes to its unique taste and quality. Knowing that such care and tradition go into making this soy sauce adds an element of specialness to every use. Moreover, its all-natural ingredients and no additives make it a healthier choice. It's a product that tastes good and aligns with a health-conscious lifestyle. TL;DR: Kishibori Shoyu is a premium, artisanal Japanese soy sauce that transforms ordinary dishes into extraordinary culinary creations. Its complex flavor, aromatic profile, and traditional brewing methods make it a must-have for anyone looking to add a touch of gourmet to their cooking.

Any argument anybody has about this soy sauce would be simple preference- as this is most certainly the "good stuff" - and nobody would argue that. There ARE different styles but for a good general versatile soy sauce that you want to be able to add to dishes without any odd tastes or it being the "wrong thing" especially for japanese cooking (Note: there are diff types of soy sauce so make sure this is the style your recipe is calling for) this is going to give you the flavor "as intended". A very good sauce overall. You pay for it but I mean... have you seen prices IN GENERAL recently? Its worth the money if you care.

What else can be said about this brand that hasn't been said here, this is a premium quality soy sauce. I was looking for a traditional Japanese soy sauce when I found this one. I didn't want one that were brewed in the US as there are just some things that I feel need to be traditionally made. And I don't mind paying extra for those types of things. I thoroughly enjoy the taste and use it just about every day. It's got a great Umami flavor slightly with mushrooms and I just absolutely love it.

A delicious and thick soy sauce. This has become my go-to for an all around good soy sauce to use both in the kitchen and as a condiment.

This is really salty, but also has a deep, earthy, well-refined flavor that I haven't found elsewhere. Use minimally to experience the flavor.

Good for all oriental food dipping. Since I have experienced of running down the street with an empty bottle to buy soy source when I was little, so this one is not good enough.

I thought all Soy Sauce was the same. Not even close!! A friend turned me on to it. This is so good I take it to sushi restaurants and they look at me funny until they taste it. You could actually drink this stuff right out of the bottle yes it’s that good. If I could give it 6 stars I would. Worth every cent.

I like this as well as any soy sauce I've had. I'm not a connoisseur, but I've tried the standard things like La Choy and various more exotic options, aged, dark, sweet, shoyu of various ages... This is the one I come back to. It's interesting and flavorful without being too heavy or strong. Keep refrigerated.

Super

毎日使う基本的な調味料だからこそ、しっかりした味と香りのものを選びたい。これがあれば刺身も煮物も大満足。余談ですが、実は煮物にはこれと九重櫻本みりんがあれば、鬼に金棒です。

Lovely soy sauce with actual complexity to it, unlike commercial cooking soy sauce.

Die Kishibori Shoyu ist für mich eine ganz besondere Sojasauce – handwerklich gefertigt und mit viel Liebe zum Detail. Der Geschmack ist wunderbar ausgewogen: nicht zu salzig, mit einer feinen Süße und einer angenehmen Umami-Note, die man bei vielen Massenprodukten vermisst. Man schmeckt sofort die lange Reifezeit und die sorgfältige Herstellung. Diese Sojasauce eignet sich perfekt zum Verfeinern von Sushi, Sashimi, Dressings oder Marinaden. Ich verwende sie auch gerne pur als Dip – der Geschmack bleibt dabei klar und intensiv, ohne zu dominieren. Die Flasche ist schön gestaltet und praktisch zu dosieren, was in der Küche sehr angenehm ist. Mein Fazit: Für alle, die Wert auf echte, handwerkliche Qualität legen und den Unterschied zu herkömmlichen Sojasaucen schmecken wollen, ist die Kishibori Shoyu eine absolute Empfehlung. Ein Produkt, das Tradition und Geschmack vereint!

Très bon produit. Riche en saveur, rien à voir avec ce qui peut être trouvé dans le commerce. Parfait pour toutes recettes. Le produit peut paraître très salé, mais c'est surtout en goût, dû au fait de sa fermentation naturelle pendant des mois ! Et c'est ce qui la rend si spéciale ! :) Je note aussi que le produit était super bien emballé dans du papier bulle, c'est ce qui m'inquiétait avant de commander, mais l'emballage était parfait vis-à-vis de ça, c'est très important pour ce genre de produit, donc merci !
