Broth
Wadakyu
The producer

Wadakyu

The company Wadakyu is a Japanese company founded in 1923in the city of Makurazaki, in Kagoshima Prefecture. It specializes in Katsuobushi, a condiment produced from fermented bonito, smoked, dried and then grated into pinkish flakes. It is a condiment much appreciated in Japan for its richness and its delicate and deep flavor and used as the main ingredient of the essential dashi broth. Due to European regulations prohibiting the importation of products that have undergone certain special smoking processes, our producer Wadakyu has decided to install a production plant on European soil. Very committed to providing quality products, it reproduces as faithfully as possible the same manufacturing process as in Japan, in compliance with European standards. This product is therefore the only one that we do not import from Japan, but from Spain.
