Minerals from the sea and forest<br>
Taste the whole salt
Salt master Inoue Yuzen traveled all over Japan and chose Yuya Bay in Yamaguchi Prefecture as the place where he could produce the ideal salt.
It is an ocean surrounded by forests where about 80% of the virgin forest remains untouched by human hands. Since the days of the Choshu clan, it has been protected as a fish-producing forest, and as a result, the natural ecosystem remains, there is a wide variety of plants, and it is rich in natural minerals.
The minerals from the forest flow down two long rivers and into the sea with the rain, and mix with the minerals from the sea in the brackish bay. This creates salt with a rich, nutritious flavor that is rich in minerals from the sea and forest. It has a strong umami flavor that enhances the delicious taste of ingredients.
その森のミネラルが、2つの長い川を伝って、雨とともに流れこみ、湾状の汽水域で海のミネラルと混ざりあいます。 そうすることで、海と森のミネラルが豊富な滋味豊かな味わいの塩ができます。旨みを強く感じ、素材をぐっと美味しく引き立てるのが特徴です。
※汽水域：海水と淡水が混ざりあう水域。
