Soy Sauce Making Process

In our Soy Sauce Tasting Palette, we invite you to embark on a journey through tasting the diverse flavors created by different regional producers and fermentation periods. The palette serves as a glimpse into the labor and love that is infused into each drop, and is an homage to the craftsmanship and traditions that lie at the heart of Soy Sauce making. Similar to the meticulous craftsmanship of winemaking, soy sauce-making requires long fermentation time, unwavering dedication and manual effort. But, unlike winemaking, there still exists a stark contrast in their pricing. Our hope is to showcase the vibrancy and delectability of each type of soy sauce, to give you a window, a starting point, into the extensive breadth of the category that underpins much of Asian cooking and flavor.
