A completely new seaweed-based fermented seasoning - gluten and soy free "Shoyu"

Made from raw Suji-Aonori, the most aromatic and highest-grade variety of green laver, this unique seasoning is crafted through fermentation with mineral-rich natural salt derived from seawater, high-quality natural underground soft water, and rice koji made from naturally grown rice cultivated without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Through the art of fermentation, these ingredients come together to create an entirely new seasoning. Even though we call the seasoning as Aonori "Shoyu (soy sauce)", it is gluten and soy free, but uniquely aromatic.

*Due to the rice shortage in Japan, we may add other ingredients instead of natural grown rice to produce Aonori Shoyu, sold from October 2025.

From the careful selection of ingredients to the precise fermentation process, this flavor is the result of over two years of dedication and countless trials. Light and delicate, yet carrying the subtle aroma of Suji-Aonori and the natural sweetness of rice koji, it offers a depth reminiscent of soy sauce. That is why we named it "Aonori Shoyu"—a seasoning that redefines tradition while embracing the essence of the sea.

It has a unique ability to enhance the natural flavors of ingredients, especially those with inherent sweetness. For example, it pairs exceptionally well with fresh amaebi (sweet shrimp) and aoriika (bigfin reef squid), bringing out their delicate umami to perfection.

Start by using Aonori Shoyu as a substitute for your everyday soy sauce. Simply adding it to your usual ingredients and dishes will introduce you to new layers of flavor and unexpected delights.

However, since heat can diminish its delicate aroma, we recommend using it as a finishing touch rather than during cooking.

Think of it like a fine olive oil—best enjoyed when drizzled at the very last moment to preserve its rich, natural fragrance.
