Launched in 1949 and awarded the Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Prize the following year, Ebisume is said to be the original shiokombu (salted kombu) and remains Oguraya Yamamoto's signature product. We are so committed to quality that we purchase around 40% of Japan's entire harvest of premium Donan (southern Hokkaido) natural makombu, using only the thick centre cuts, carefully simmered and dried using time-honoured techniques. The kombu is carefully selected by skilled craftsmen and simmered using traditional techniques passed down for over 170 years.
