## Overview

Yamaroku Shoyu Tsuru Bisiho is a premium artisan soy sauce aged for 4 years in century-old Japanese wooden barrels, crafted with only natural ingredients and no additives. Celebrated for its rich, mellow umami flavor, it’s a versatile gourmet condiment ideal for elevating sushi, sashimi, grilled dishes, and even desserts. This flagship soy sauce preserves a rare traditional brewing method, offering an authentic taste experience that stands apart from mass-produced alternatives.

## Description

Tsurubishio is the flagship series of soy sauce for Yamaroku and is aged the longest between 3-5 years. "Tsuru" means "crane" and "Bishio" means "condiment". In Japan, cranes are regarded as auspicious birds and symbolize longevity. It is said the song of cranes can reach the heavens, and Yamaroku wants this soy sauce to be like the cranes which can reach the heavens and be known to everyone. Tsurubishio is characterized as having a rich mellow flavor and is recommended for use in sushi, sashimi, tofu, grilled fish and as a secret ingredient for original dishes. A unique use of Tusurubishio is putting it on top of vanilla ice cream which creates a very caramel like flavor. Adds a surprise twist for guests and customers at a restaurant. This soy sauce is made using the traditional and authentic method to ferment Japanese condiments since ancient times using Japanese wooden barrels called kioke. Due to modern mass production of soy sauce, only 1% of total soy sauce production in Japan uses this traditional method. Get a taste of Japanese history almost lost in modern times by trying and enjoying this classic condiment done right.
