Komachi

Japanese Shio-Koji Miyabi
Japanese Bobtail ♀ / Japan
Golden eyes / white, orange and black, a poised medium build

A Japanese Bobtail — one of Japan's proudest breeds. Sitting quietly in the soft light through a shoji screen, beside a miso cellar or a koji room, she is a true guardian of Japan's fermentation culture. In her serene grace, the quiet depth of the Japanese table comes into view.

THE CULTURE

The Japanese Table — Memories of Koji and Fermentation

Where koji transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary.
Miso, soy sauce, mirin, vinegar. Every seasoning that holds up the Japanese table is born from the power of a tiny fungus called koji.
The long-established miso cellars of Kyoto, the fish sauce of Noto, the black vinegar of Kagoshima. The fermentation culture nurtured by the climate of the Japanese islands is among the most delicate and varied in the world.

Japanese Shio-Koji Miyabi holds that wisdom of fermentation within a single jar.
