What is Saikyo Miso?

Saikyo Miso is a traditional Kyoto-style white miso known for its delicate sweetness, smooth texture, and elegant flavor. Unlike many other misos, Saikyo Miso is made with a high proportion of rice koji and less salt, resulting in a mellow, naturally sweet taste.

Its light color and refined flavor have made it a staple ingredient in Kyoto cuisine for centuries.

The Kyoto Tradition

Authentic Saikyo Miso is produced exclusively in Kyoto Prefecture and is known for its exceptionally high rice koji content, delicate sweetness, and silky-smooth texture. Developed as part of Kyoto's refined culinary culture, it remains an essential ingredient in traditional dishes such as Saikyo-yaki and Kyoto-style soups.

"Deluxe" indicates the higher koji content of this Saikyo miso. The 22-part koji ratio creates a sweeter, smoother, and more delicate taste. Made with 2.2 times more rice koji than soybeans, creating an exceptionally sweet, smooth, and delicate flavor.
