🎌 Yunohana Miso Soy Sauce

The factory, located next to Shuri Castle, has been producing "Yamanaba Miso Soy Sauce" for over 170 years, preserving the flavors favored by the Ryukyu royal family. They adhere to natural brewing methods without additives, making their miso highly popular among local residents. Using whole soybeans combined with Okinawan salt and their homemade koji for fermentation and aging, their natural brewing process stands out. Unlike the typical production that occurs in cold winters and takes a whole year for fermentation and aging, Okinawa's average annual temperature of 23 degrees Celsius, along with high humidity, allows for brewing year-round. This results in a shorter fermentation period, yielding miso with a natural sweetness. Their signature product, "Dynasty Miso," is made from flavorful domestic whole soybeans and rice koji, boasting a rich sweetness and texture. It is not only suitable for various dishes but also pairs perfectly as a dipping sauce for vegetable sticks. Other offerings include "Shuri Miso," used in nutritional lunches at local kindergartens and daycare centers, and "Special Miso," a refreshing blended miso, among many others, allowing customers to choose based on their needs. The "Turmeric Miso," made with rice miso and infused with turmeric, has a taste that keeps customers coming back, boasting a loyal fan base.

Founded in the 1850s, it is an old-established miso shop favored by the Ryukyu royal family. The additive-free miso made using traditional natural brewing methods has received widespread acclaim. The signature product is "Ouchou Miso," made from whole domestic soybeans, rice koji, and Okinawa island salt.
