The Taste of Japan

Kikkoman has been naturally brewing soy sauce for over 300 years and remains the No.1 selling soy sauce in Japan, Australia and the world.

The taste is richer and more complex, due to over 300 flavour and aroma components being created while it is naturally brewed over several months.

The harmonious combination and subtle balance of the five basic flavours of sweet, sour, salty, bitter and umami (savoury) are what give Kikkoman soy sauce its delicious taste and its versatility. It is the perfect substitute for salt adding that extra depth of flavour and to Asian, Western and Fusion cuisines. It is Kikkoman complex Umami deliciousness that brings that flavour wow factor to your dish.
