02 / ABOUT AKAZU

UMAMI AROMA AND COLOR,
SHAPED BY TIME.

Akazu is a traditional Japanese vinegar brewed from sake lees-the solids that remain after sake is pressed. As the lees mature, their color and flavor deepen. Slow fermentation transforms them into a vinegar with gentle acidity, savory depth and a distinctive aroma.
Long valued for Edomae-style sushi rice, akazu also brings balance and character to sauces, marinades and modern cuisine.
