With a taste like Gouda cheese, this smoky and frangrant island tofu, known as shimadofu, has a firm yet moist texture. It's made by slowly aging tofu with koji (a fermenting microorganism) and smoking it with cherry wood chips. It's a local favorite from the southern tropical islands of Okinawa!

The Best!

This smoked tofu is honestly the best I have ever tried! The taste is refined, versatile, and exquisite. I just cannot find this level of quality in the U.S. and it is clearly hand crafted. Thank you for your exceptional products and incredible care in shipping your products. Kokoro is a wonderful shop with quality, unique products, and I am thrilled to be able to buy from this online shop! It was also a beautiful gesture to send the lovely little recipe cards. Thank you so much for offering such an array of products that exemplify the beauty of Japan.
