Haku Black Garlic Shoyu is a truly extraordinary expression of the progressive next generation of Shoyu Masters from Kyoto Prefecture. These modern day trailblazers are following traditions dating back 3,000 years, while introducing new techniques and ingredients to produce an exceptional product worthy of their ancestor's approval. These master craftsmen have perfectly paired the individual qualities of Shoyu and Black Garlic to create a symphony of flavors unrivaled by any Shoyu today. Complex aromas of earthy must and fermented soy beans are present on the nose while flavor notes of Fig, Raisin, Molasses, and subdued hints of Garlic fill the palate. Used in Japan as a finishing Shoyu or as a stand-alone ingredient, Haku Black Garlic Shoyu stands out among Japan's great Shoyus.
Soy sauces can be Chinese Style (100% soy beans) or Japanese Style (a mix of soybeans and wheat). While the Chinese style is known to be "salty and bold" the Japanese style, known as Shoyu, is more nuanced, sublime, and mellow.
