Kisaichi Junmai Su Rice Vinegar 500ml

This Kisaichi Junmai Su Rice Vinegar is a pure 100% rice wine vinegar. This Japanese rice vinegar is made in a similar way to a wine vinegar. First, a sake with high amino acid (lots of umami) is brewed, which is then fermented into vinegar for about 4 months. The in-house yeast is crucial for the perfect balance of aroma, acidity and umami. It gets a fine acidity with a so called 'clear' flavour. 

This Junmai Su Rice vinegar is just ideal for raw/unheated dishes (other vinegars are often heated briefly in Japan to make them milder). It can be perfectly used for sushi rice, gari (pickled ginger), saba (mackerel) and Japanese salads.

The Kisaichi vinegar manufactory, founded in 1922, is a specialist in sushi vinegar craft work. The various vinegars have been popular with Michelin-starred restaurants in Tokyo and Osaka for decades and can be seen as the royal addition to your Japanese cooking. All vinegars are traditionally brewed from basic Japanese ingredients with no additives. You will taste the difference from the beginning.

All of their vinegars have a low volume of acidity, so that it will not over-acidify even sushi rice. The natural amino acids emphasise the natural sweetness of the sushi rice and effect into a wonderful sensation in your mouth.
