Developoment Story
Fukuyama Town, surrounded by mountains and overlooking Kinko Bay with Sakurajima, is a famous producer of black vinegar in Japan. About 250 years ago, traveling merchant Birou taught the secret technique of black vinegar making to Takenoshita Matsubei, which marked the beginning of black vinegar making in Japan. Since then, it has been passed down from generation to generation, and the fifth generation master, Shigehisa Masazumi, continues to protect the traditional black vinegar making method by taking advantage of Fukuyama's special environment and natural groundwater. The active earthenware jars, which have been in use for more than two centuries, continue to produce delicious black vinegar. The "Sakurajima Black Vinegar" set, which includes this black vinegar in a custom-made Arita ware miniature earthenware jar and a ladle handmade by an artisan, is a special item that will make a memorable gift for someone special.
