Tenpaku High Grade "Yukibushi" Fine Powder Katsuo shavings for easy flavoring, 70g

The TENPAKU family has a very long history in making katsuobushi, but only established their own brand in 1946. Now run by the fourth generation, they are one of the very few remaining traditional-style makers of Katsuo products.

The current owner, Yukiaki Tenpaku, focuses on quality rather than quantity, and will not let a katsuobushi block leave the warehouse until is has been through all drying, smoking and fermentation cycles to perfection and the fish's natural fat has turned into a beautiful Umami.

Not surprisingly, Tenpaku katsuobushi is a favorite among skilled Japanese chefs that do not wish to comprise on quality. And now it is also available to you through NIHON ICHIBAN! We even offer the special wooden grater that allows you to experience the delight of fresh, homemade Katsuobushi flakes wherever you are in the world!
