Ohsawa Nama Shoyu (1x5 Oz)

Wonderful product. The best shoyu sauce I’ve ever had. Pleased to find such a good price, prompt & careful packaging.

Delicious but too expensive here. Didn't realize I can find this product in my local health food store.

Deep, smooth, smoky flavor. Soy sauce that is certified organic, naturally brewed, unpasteurized, and reduced in sodium. The description claims it’s aged in old wooden barrels, an artisan making technique with live probiotics. I’m no expert in soy sauce, and maybe such products are common in Japan, but I did not see another comparable product on Amazon. This was the most naturally tasting soy sauce I’ve tried so far, confirmed by the few natural ingredients, and no added vinegar or alcohol. With regards to sodium, this is a comparison per 1 Tbsp: • Kikkoman organic naturally brewed regular sodium: 990mg • Whole Foods 365 Organic Shoyu Reduced sodium: 650mg • This sauce: 720mg So this falls under the category of reduced sodium AFAIC. The 5oz bottle is actually the the same price as the 10oz one at the time of this review, so go for the 10oz, which still is not cheap, but adequate for this quality and comparable to other brands in the same category.

Love taste. Husband does too even though he's not a soy sauce lover. Wish it were less expensive. I don't use to marinate because of price.

Conflicting opinions in my family, I'm a 3/5, Dad said 5/5... He really liked it. I... thought it tasted like soy sauce. Maybe I'm not one for the finer things. It tasted all right. It was nice & dark. Smaller bottle than expected for the price, but if it makes him happy. Probably wouldn't get again.
