No Rush, No Hurry, And Preserve As It Is

In the year 1832, the first generation, Ukon Izaemon, who was a government official in Hizen Province (an old province of Japan in the area of Saga and Nagasaki prefectures), was taught how to make vinegar as a thank-you for giving an inn to a stranger.

Over 190 years after that, the fermentation of vinegar, which has been handed down along with the manufacturing method, was carefully inherited from the first generation. With the motto of "no rush, no hurry, and preserve as it is". Even now, the manufacturing process is still using the traditional method and still takes a long time. The manufacturer is working carefully on the vinegar production.

Reviews

Gentle acidity that can be enjoyed by the whole family
Because the vinegar doesn’t have the sharp taste, my children can enjoy it as well.

Reliable because of traditional manufacture
I like the taste, but above all, I can trust because it is carefully made with particular attention to raw materials and manufacturing methods. I feel that the long history from the Edo period is a value that other products do not have.

I'm new to Nigori vinegar, but I like it
I use vinegar on a daily basis, so I'm glad that I can use it in plenty. It was my first time using nigori vinegar, so what about it? I was wondering. But after tasting it, I really like the mild and refreshing taste.

I use it habitually. Also, I think the container is very convenient
It is great for beverages and for cooking. It goes well with salads and spicy sauces, so it's often used for cooking. While many vinegar bottles are made from glass, I actually prefer the plastic container as they are easier to handle and throw away.
