Handmade Usukuchi Soy Sauce "こころ"　(300ml x 3 bottles)

Usukuchi (light-colored) soy sauce is paler than koikuchi soy sauce, making it well suited to dishes where you want to preserve the natural color of the ingredients. "Kokoro" is Yamakou's naturally brewed, handcrafted usukuchi soy sauce.

• Characteristic: Light in color, ideal for dishes where you want the dashi or ingredients' natural color to shine
• Flavor: Though pale, the saltiness and umami are pronounced. Behind its clean finish lies the depth that comes from the koji-tray method
• Recommended uses: Clear soups, simmered dishes, udon broth, and other Japanese dishes where color matters
• Volume: Three 300ml bottles

This bottle expresses the appeal often said of usukuchi soy sauce — "pale in color, but full in flavor" — through Yamakou's careful, handmade brewing.
