Mitsuboshi Horikawaya Nomura Artisanal Soy Sauce – Japanese 200g

Mitsuboshi Horikawaya Nomura produces one of Japan's most respected artisanal soy sauces, brewed using traditional methods that have remained largely unchanged for generations. This 200-gram bottle contains naturally fermented soy sauce with depth and complexity that mass-produced versions cannot match. The umami is pronounced but not aggressive — it enhances rather than dominates.

About this product

Made through slow fermentation of soybeans and wheat, this soy sauce develops its character over months. The result is a sauce with a refined balance of saltiness, sweetness, and savory depth. It carries the mark of a producer who prioritizes craft over volume, evident in every pour.

• Use as a finishing sauce for grilled fish, tofu, or vegetables
• Whisk into vinaigrettes for Asian-inspired salads

⭐ Why we love this

This is a masterclass in umami restraint — a Japanese artisanal sauce that respects ingredient quality over aggressive seasoning. Like Spain's finest aged sherries, it's built on time and tradition, delivering complexity that elevates rather than masks the natural flavors of what you're cooking.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Perfect for finishing grilled Spanish seafood — a drizzle over gambas a la plancha or bacalao transforms the dish with subtle savory depth. Pair the meal with a crisp Albariño from Rías Baixas, whose mineral salinity complements both the soy's umami and the sauce's refined restraint.

📍 From Spain

While this exceptional soy sauce originates from Japan's Horikawa region, we source it through our partnerships with Spain's most discerning gourmet importers who recognize that true quality transcends borders. It reflects our commitment to bringing the world's finest artisanal producers to your Spanish kitchen.
