Namikura Aka (Red) miso is classified as a “red miso” due to being aged for at least 6 months and also by using less rice and more soybeans in its production.

Miso is a fundamental core ingredient across all of Japanese Cuisine and Namikura Aka Miso is a standout example.  Namikura Miso Co is a family-owned, 5th generation producer that is highly regarded throughout Japan for its incredible depth of flavor and superb texture.
