I ordered this soy sauce shortly before Christmas and it arrived in time in Germany—much faster than I expected for an international delivery. I first discovered this soy sauce during my trip through Japan and absolutely loved it, but I hadn’t had it for quite a while. Tasting it again genuinely surprised me: it’s the best soy sauce I’ve ever had. From a German perspective, it’s simply not comparable to what you typically find in stores here—richer, more balanced, and far more authentic. Highly recommended.
