About Us
Robin Sherriff of Koji kitchen and Jonathan Hope of Kultured have teamed up to open Scotlands first Miso / Shoyu brewery.
Organic local ingredients fermented in oak casks.
We buy edible mould - Koji kin (aspergillus oryzae) from Japan, and use it to inoculate Scottish gluten free oats.
We then mix this with peas and sea salt to make miso, or peas, water and sea salt to make shoyu.
