Description
This is a white miso, a miso that has fermented for a shorter period, with a lighter and less salty flavor. This miso has the particularity of containing amazake, a sweet drink made from fermented rice, which gives it sweetness and roundness. Amazake is produced with koji, whose enzymes convert the starch in rice into sugar. The color of this miso darkens over time due to natural aging, but this does not alter its flavor.
Like the vast majority of quality misos, this miso is unpasteurized: salt and organic acids from fermentation naturally ensure preservation and maintain the integrity of its aromas.
Flavor
It is sweet, almost sugary, very umami.
Preservation
Store in a cool, dry place away from light. Refrigerate after opening.

A legacy of Yutaro Yaginuma, the company makes its own koji thanks to traditional fermentation methods, refined generation after generation. Its ambition: to promote the culinary culture of koji throughout the world, through healthy and authentic products such as miso, sagohachi — pickles combining koji, salt and rice — or amazake, a sweet and naturally sweet drink.
