About Igeta Soy Sauce
Founded in 1864. "Soy sauce is not just a flavoring agent. Originally, brewing is a heritage from our ancestors, allowing us to utilize the precious life substances created by microorganisms to fulfill their own life." This philosophy of the previous generation is inherited by this long-established soy sauce brewery, which continues traditional brewing methods. They carry out all processes of brewing in-house, from ingredient processing to koji making, fermentation, aging, and pressing.
