Ishii Miso
Three-year-aged miso sleeping in cedar barrels—the authentic "living flavor."
The moment you step into the warehouse, you're enveloped by the rich, fragrant aroma that gently wafts through the air. Founded in 1868, this is one of the few remaining natural fermentation miso breweries, cultivating "Three-Year Miso" in massive cedar barrels—a rarity today.The sight of barrels holding 4,500kg of miso is nothing short of spectacular. Guided
tours, held regularly, offer insight into the depth of "living miso," which undergoes no additives or heat treatment. After the tour, visit the attached dining area. Savor the rich umami depth, cultivated over time, in signature dishes like the pork miso soup or lunch sets generously featuring three-year miso.
