Promising reviews: “Excellent flavor, exceptionally smooth, not overly salty, pleasing ‘thickness’ to the sauce. I used it for homemade tuna and salmon rolls and sashimi for dipping, it’s just on another level of flavor compared to steel vat-aged soy sauces. Too precious to cook with so I’ll only be using it to dip succulent sliced sashimi and rolls! 100% recommended for a barrel-aged soy sauce!” —DARTH NALGAS
“A few years ago, a food blog evaluated soy sauce brands and put this one on top. The usual Kikkoman is fine, but this is better. I gave it a try, and… Well, now Amazon reminds me that I’ve purchased this product four times already. That says something; it’s not like I go through soy sauce that fast. As artisanal products go, this is affordable. It’s worth the experiment!” —Esther
