A perfectly balanced blend of traditional rice vinegar, made according to a centuries old method in the Kumano Mountain region of Wakayama, and mirin. Mirin provides sweetness and umami notes that enhance the flavour of sushi rice.
Designed as the ideal seasoning for sushi rice, it is also very well suited for use in vinaigrettes and for seasoning any rice dish or steamed vegetables.
Available in 300ml
Refrigerate once open and use within 3 months.
We are delighted that our Sushisu was recognised in 2025's Great Taste Awards, here are some of the judges' comments:
Well-balanced and complementary. It is smooth and slightly sweet, with an acetic hit which is refreshing.
Fabulous aroma to this vinegar- a fruitiness on the nose - that reminded us of raspberries.
Very clean and fresh – a lovely, well-made product that would give character to many dishes.
About Marusho
A family business now run by the fourth generation, Marusho's vinegar brewery is located in the same building where the business began in 1879. Mud & wood walls and earthenware floors house the giant cedarwood barrels, some more than 100 years old, where the fermentation of the vinegars take place. Vinegars are made with rice grown on the family estate, water from the nearby Kumano mountains of Wakayama and only the highest quality natural ingredients. The progress of fermentation is minutely monitored by skilled craftsmen throughout the 90 to 500 day process.
