The Yamaroku Tsurubishio Shoyu is a premium Japanese barrel-aged soy sauce made of high quality natural ingredients and by following traditional techniques.
Tsurubishio Shoyu has dark, almost black color, very rich and strong scent, and mellow taste.
The soy sauce is aged in large wooden barrels which have been used for over 150 years since the foundation of Yamaroku. The passage of time makes the lactic acid bacteria and yeasts settle tightly inside the barrels, giving the soy sauce a distinctive flavor and taste.
What makes this soy sauce different from the others is Yamaroku's "re-preparation method". While conventional soy sauces are sold into market after 2-years-fermentation, Yamaroku once extracts the soy sauce from the barrel, puts it into the barrel again, and ferments it for another 2 years. This makes the flavor very rich and full.
Close the bottle cap tightly once opened, and store it in a cool and dark place. Avoid direct heat or sunlight.

- MPMichael P.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars5/25/25Nothing like this soy sauce
Since we tried the soy sauce, we would not use any other soy sauce. We use it to make marination and many other delicious Asian dishes. This soy sauce taste like what soy sauce used to taste like 40, 50 years ago when I was a kid. It has real soy sauce, taste, and the real benefit of its fermentation. Strongly recommended!
- SHSander H.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars5/8/25Simply the best
Have tried alot of soya, but this is my favorite.
- PSPaul S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2/5/25Probably the best soy sauce I've ever had
It has a nice strong soy flavor, very balanced. I end up using less soy sauce than I would usually need. Bottle arrived cracked but with a large ammount of padding, so I'll blame the shippers. Beautiful bottle but unfortunately not able to use it, got around 85% of the sauce transfered to another glass bottle.
- SHSamantha H.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2/4/25Worth every penny!!
Thus soy sauce has changed the game for me. The flavor is rich and has a hint of natural sweetness. I have used this in everything from dipping sauces, stir fry sauces, alone for sushi, and in soups. I love that I'm supporting an artisan as well. (They are making soy sauce the traditional way, I believe their family has been doing this for 500 years)
- GSGary S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2/4/25The best soya I,ve tasted!
I've been a chef for nearly 60 years, some of those years I've been preparing and cooking Japanese food, Yamaroku Tsurubishio Shoyu Barrel Aged Japanese Soy Sauce is the best soya I have ever tasted!

This Shoyu is a different food group than the Soy you might find from Kikoman in a supermarket. We use this in marinades and such; it adds a depth of flavor that is incredible and worth the premium price versus supermarket brands. We use Tamari from JT for Sashimi and this for everything else where a Soy is called far.
