  • Unique hand-crafted product from Hyogo

This unique vinegar, once only available to the customers of an unassuming sushi restaurant in shopping street near Kobe in Hyogo Prefecture, is unlike any vinegar you're had before! Named after an ancient area on Shikoku Island famous for bonito (skipjack tuna) Tosa vinegar is infused with katsuobushi (dried, fermented, smoked bonito fish) and konbu (kelp.) This imparts a smoky, umami-rich flavor that balances out the sharpness of the vinegar.


Size: 150ml
Storage: Refrigerate after opening.
Ingredients: Grain vinegar, mirin, soy sauce (including soybeans and wheat), sugar, bonito, konbu (kelp), salt, alcohol

I love this vinegar

This vinegar is so flavorful and absolutely delicious! I eat it frequently with tomatoes (using their recipe at https://kokorocares.com/blogs/recipes/recipe-vinegared-tomato-and-basil with "flavor bomb" cherry tomatoes in the US). This vinegar has a delicate, slightly smoky (from the katsuobushi i assume), almost sweet flavor. I think I am on my 7th bottle now and will continue to buy more for as long as they are selling it :D.
