Kinsho vinegar 1800ml

In stock
Kinsho Akasu is a Japanese red vinegar made with sake lees as the main ingredient. Akasu means red vinegar in Japanese and differs from regular rice vinegar, which is typically made directly from rice.
When the sake lees are aged sealed for a longer period, the color changes from amber to brownish red. This happens through the influence of yeast and koji culture.
During aging, proteins are converted into amino acids, while the starch is slowly converted into sugar and organic acid. This gives the vinegar a rich taste, mild aroma, and distinct umami.
Characteristics
