Three bottles of Yamaroku soy sauce

A set of three bottles including Shinoke Hatsu Shibori 2025

This set includes two bottles: a dark soy sauce (Kikusho) made from black soybeans from Tanba, and a second soy sauce (Tsurusho) that has been aged for a long time. The difference between the two bottles, which have different aims, is clear when compared.

Kikujiang has a delicate and sharp taste, while Tsurujiang has a rich and deep flavor. For meat that you would like to eat with salt or wasabi, try Kikujiang to fully enjoy the delicate flavor of the meat, and try coating tuna sashimi with the rich Tsurujiang.

Tsurusho / Yamaroku Soy Sauce (Kagawa Prefecture)

Mr. Yamamoto of Yamaroku Soy Sauce, a long-established soy sauce brewery on Shodoshima, also makes wooden barrels. He is the initiator of the "Kioke Craftsman Revival Project," which began out of a sense of crisis that "kioke will disappear!" He is so enthusiastic that he is even learning how to make barrels himself, and is working to connect the wooden barrel culture to the next generation.

Tsurusho is Yamaroku Soy Sauce's signature re-brewed soy sauce, visited by many people from all over Japan and the world. It is a four-year aged product, consisting of two years of aging of dark soy sauce, followed by the addition of mash and another two years of aging. It is characterized by its rich, deep flavor and mellow taste, and a rich aroma that fills the mouth. Some people say that once they try it, they can't use any other soy sauce.
