Yamaroku signature soy sauce Tsuru-bishio '鶴醤'
The method starts with fresh soy sauce aged 1-2 years, which is returned to the barrel, fortified with additional soybeans and wheat, and aged for another 2-3 years. Using additional ingredients, time, and nature’s power, the salt from the original aging process develops into incredible depth, aroma, and smoothness.

ABOUT THE MAKER

Yamaroku Soy Sauce | ヤマロク醤油 | Shodoshima Island, Kagawa Prefecture

Founded in 1505 on Shodoshima Island, Yamaroku Soy Sauce has been preserving the traditional art of wooden barrel fermentation for over 500 years.

Using large cedar barrels and natural fermentation methods passed down through generations, Yamaroku creates soy sauce with exceptional depth, complexity, and umami. In an industry that has largely shifted to modern production, they continue to protect one of Japan’s rare living food traditions — allowing time, microorganisms, and craftsmanship to shape each batch naturally.
