Ito Shoten uses only specially selected domestic whole soybeans, high-quality sun-dried salt, and a fermenting agent known as koji, which are combined together in a cedar barrel for three years to create their miso, as well as this tamari shoyu.
The long brewing and aging process required to create this tamari shoyu results in a deep and rich flavor, stronger than a typical soy sauce. Interestingly, it is less salty than typical soy sauce, resulting in a perfectly-balanced product that is rich and flavorful.
