Aizu Takasagoya

This Aizu miso and soy sauce factory has been operating in Aizu for over 100 years. It has continued to produce such products as Kintakasago Soy Sauce and Tsurugajo Miso, which are indispensable to the dining tables of Aizu to this day. Their signature product Kintakasago Soy Sauce is a popular product that has won the highest Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award at the National Soy Sauce Evaluation Competition. Tsurugajo Miso, which uses a lot of rice malt made from domestic Japanese rice, is characterized by its pale color and slightly sweet taste. Nishin Sansho-zuke, made with dried herring processed in Hokkaido and marinated in a secret sauce, and additive-free fresh shichimi seven spice mix, also make great gifts.
