CREATION AND MAINTENANCE OF PURITY IN FOOD Eden Organic Shoyu Soy Sauce — 10 fl oz, Aged 2 Years in Cypress Barrels

Eden Organic Shoyu Soy Sauce is a traditionally crafted Japanese shoyu, organically made and aged two years in century-old cypress barrels for a deep, layered umami.

This small-batch shoyu from CREATION AND MAINTENANCE OF PURITY IN FOOD combines Japan-grown organic soy and wheat with sea salt and mountain spring water, then ferments with koji Aspergillus oryzae. The long, ambient-temperature aging and the microclimate around the barrels develop balanced savory depth and aromatic complexity you won’t find in quick-produced soy sauces.

How does the two-year cypress barrel aging affect flavor?

Extended aging in seasoned cypress barrels mellows sharp ferment notes and builds roundness, creating savory layers and a fragrant finish. The barrels’ wood interacts slowly with the liquid, softening edges and concentrating aroma without additives.

• Two years of open, ambient fermentation for gradual flavor development
• Hundred-year-old cypress barrels impart subtle woody aromatics
• Reduced harshness and amplified savory (umami) character
• Balanced aroma, color, and mouthfeel from natural barrel interaction

What ingredients and processes ensure this shoyu is organic and traditional?

Every component is sourced from Japan—organic soybeans, organic wheat, sea salt, and mountain spring water—combined using a koji fermentation culture and time-tested tending practices. No chemical accelerants or artificial flavors are used.
