Japan's Best Kombu Kelp Producer
The company Okui Kaiseido has been established in 1871 and is now run by the fourth generation of the Okui family. The company is located in Tsuruga, which at the time of the establishment was one of the main ports used to trade Kombu kelp from Hokkaido to Osaka and Kyoto. Nowadays, there are very few makers that understand and master this traditional art. Mr. Okui is one of these makers and therefore the Kombu from Okui Kaiseido is well-known and often chosen by famous Japanese chefs.
