Takasago Organic Smoked Whole Soybean Soy Sauce 160ml

Produced at Takasago Shoyu Honten, a long-established soy sauce maker in Kunitori-cho, Izumo City (Shimane Prefecture, Tokyo area), this smoked soy sauce is a genuinely distinctive condiment that rewards those who seek something beyond the ordinary. Non-GMO organic whole soybeans are carefully selected and cold-smoked, a step that infuses the final sauce with a subtle, lingering smokiness that elevates it far above a conventional soy sauce. The result is something complex, layered, and quietly captivating.
The addition of rice fermented seasoning, flying fish (tobiko), and kelp introduces a naturally derived umami that broadens the depth of flavour considerably. Flying fish in particular is a traditional dashi ingredient deeply rooted in the culinary culture of the San'in region, lending the sauce a clean oceanic quality that complements the smoke without competing with it. Every element here has been chosen with intention, and the combination is one that reflects years of craft.
Use it as a finishing sauce over grilled fish or seared meat, as a dipping condiment for sashimi, or simply drizzled over a bowl of hot rice to experience its full character. The 160ml bottle makes it an ideal gift for anyone with an appreciation for artisan Japanese ingredients.
