White miso with koshihikari rice ⋅ yamataka ⋅ 750g

This unpasteurized artisanal miso is a living product that continues to ferment naturally over time. This process may gradually darken its color and slightly intensify its flavor. It contains a higher-than-average koji ratio, giving it a characteristic sweetness as well as natural variations from one batch to another.

Transported in a refrigerated container and kept chilled to limit fermentation, it may nevertheless develop darker shades depending on the production period or storage conditions. Some jars may therefore appear slightly more “mature.”

These changes are entirely normal, do not affect its quality, and the product remains perfectly suitable for consumption. It is suitable for all the usual uses of miso, particularly in soups, marinades, and sauces.

Yamataka Miso perpetuates the art of miso with meticulous care, from selecting the raw ingredients to fermenting at high altitude. Located near the Yatsugatake Mountains, the company upholds Japanese tradition with rigor and passion. The rice and soybeans, carefully selected, are prepared with precision and then transformed into miso enriched with yeasts and lactic acid bacteria. The slow fermentation, carried out at an altitude of 1,000 meters, produces misos with a subtle aroma and carefully balanced aromatic richness.

Store away from light, heat, and moisture. After opening: keep refrigerated.
