Collection: Products from Aichi Prefecture

Nestled in the heart of Japan, the prefecture of Aichi is a region rich in the culinary traditions and craftsmanship that characterize Japanese gastronomy. Known for its temperate climate and fertile soils, Aichi enjoys ideal conditions for the cultivation of quality ingredients, in particular rice, vegetables and herbs, which form the basis of its refined cuisine.

Aichi is particularly renowned for its culinary specialties such as Aichi miso, an essential ingredient in Japanese cuisine, and hitsumabushi, a traditional dish based on grilled fish accompanied by rice. The region is also famous for its chirimenjako, small dried shrimps, and tenmusu, a combination of tempura and rice wrapped in nori.

Artisanal techniques, such as those used in the production of soy sauces and vinegars, are passed down from generation to generation, and many breweries and producers continue to favor traditional manufacturing methods. The prefecture is also a center for the production of high-quality green tea, particularly Okazaki-grown tea, appreciated for its delicate aroma and smoothness.
