Japanese vinegar

Did you know that there are only 400 rice vinegar producers in Japan, and an even smaller number who still make vinegar in a traditional way? These producers make the nihonshu (saké) that is used to make the vinegar themselves. They cannot under any circumstances sell their nihonshu so as not to compete with specialist producers.
Japan produces a huge range of vinegars: apple, sushi, sakura flower, yuzu, sudachi, shiso, dried bonito, jabara vinegars….

Not All Rice Vinegars Are Created Equal

Large-scale producers use an average of only 40 g of rice per liter of vinegar, prioritizing productivity over flavor. These bland products are primarily designed to meet the needs of mass retailers and the food industry.

In contrast, artisans use between 120 and 160 g of rice to produce one liter of Japanese vinegar, ensuring significantly higher quality. Among them, one name stands out: LIO JYOZO, a family-run business in Miyazu, Kyoto Prefecture, that has been crafting the world's finest rice vinegar for four generations.

Nishikidôri’s Rice Vinegar Producers

LIO JYOZO: A Legendary Name

Since 1893, LIO JYOZO has preserved its unique expertise in crafting exceptional vinegars and sake. Their distinctiveness lies in their complete control over the production process—from pesticide-free rice cultivation in the Tango and Kyoto mountains to the final vinegar product.

Sustainable Cultivation: Their rice is grown in terraces (Tanada method) at over 500 meters above sea level. For over 50 years, no pesticides have been used, and since 2001, the crops have been entirely clean. However, this tradition faces challenges due to the aging farmer population and a lack of interest among younger generations.

Artisanal Process: LIO JYOZO crafts its own rice malt, a key ingredient in sake brewing, and uses a traditional static fermentation method. The vinegar ferments slowly for 80 to 120 days and is then matured for at least 8 months. This meticulous process ensures a vinegar that is mild, aromatic, and rich in umami.

Explore their signature products: Fujisu Premium Rice Vinegar and Junmai Fujisu Superior Rice Vinegar, ideal for vinaigrettes or pickled dishes. Both make excellent sushi vinegars.

Tobaya Suten: 300 Years of Tradition

Founded in 1710, Tobaya Suten continues a centuries-old tradition of crafting artisanal japanese vinegars. Nakano-san, its 12th president, sums up their philosophy: "Vinegar is a subtle yet indispensable condiment. Its role is to enhance the flavors of dishes. Every time I witness the fermentation process, I can't help but believe it’s a work of nature."

Their unique method, such as the manual mixing of vinegar pulp (Kaiire), reflects the love and respect for this craft passed down through generations. Discover their exceptional vinegars, perfect for elevating both Japanese and international recipes.

Why Choose Rice Vinegar?

The Perfect Sushi Vinegar

Sushi rice vinegar is essential for preparing sushi rice. It gives the rice its sticky texture, appealing sheen, and delicate sweetness, making sushi even more flavorful.

Versatile Uses

Rice vinegar isn’t limited to Japanese cuisine. It fits seamlessly into various recipes, including:

- Marinades for meats and fish.

- Flavorful soups.

- Sweet and sour sauces.

- Light dressings for salads and vegetables.

For a creative twist, the Cherry Blossom Rice Vinegar Condiment offers a refined floral flavor to your dishes.

A Unique Taste

Rice vinegar stands out with its perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. It’s mild, aromatic, and rich in umami, with flavor nuances that depend on the rice quality and fermentation time.

Which Rice Vinegar to Choose?

For outstanding sushi rice, we recommend the Temaki Sushi Premium Vinegar, aged for 10 years using black rice. This rare vinegar is also excellent for preparing sweet and sour sauces or marinated fish.

For vinaigrettes and sauces, the Fujisu Premium Rice Vinegar and Junmai Fujisu Superior Rice Vinegar deliver authentic, artisanal Japanese flavors that are unparalleled.

At Nishikidôri, explore an exclusive selection of rice vinegars. Whether you’re looking for artisanal japanese vinegar, sushi rice vinegar, or flavored condiments, our products will elevate your dishes with the unique tastes of Japan.
