Kaga Miso

Kaga miso is the number one miso producer in Ishikawa Prefecture. Its strength comes from the union of 10 historic miso producers, already present since the Edo (1603-1868) and Meiji (1868-1912) eras, with the goal of producing more miso under impeccably hygienic conditions. Their miso is characterized by a rich and robust flavor, achieved thanks to a high proportion of rice koji and long aging, as well as a traditional manufacturing process in which a yeast made in-house is added to the miso. While preserving a traditional production method that takes advantage of the region’s water, Kaga miso offers miso that adapts to consumers’ tastes.
