Wholesale Artisanal Miso Amakuchi Yellow 8oz

Our Artisanal Miso Paste, Amakuchi Yellow is a relatively younger yellow miso, known for its delightful fruity koji aroma. This miso typically has a salt content of around 7-9% and a very high koji ratio. It is naturally fermented, with no temperature control used to expedite the fermentation process. The fermentation period ranges from approximately 3 to 8 months. When Ai Fujiomto, the founder of Omiso visited one of the old miso breweries in Okayama Prefecture, she found that their Ama-miso, fermented in the Setonaikai area, shared many similarities in flavor and climate environment with our Amakuchi miso. We "shikomi" prepare our artisanal miso by hand in our commercial kitchen in Downtown Los Angeles, just like how each household in Japan traditionally made their miso batches at home. Our miso has a very high koji ratio, setting it apart from the mass-produced miso by large manufacturers.
