Move beyond buying miso—learn how to make and nurture your own.

In this hands-on workshop, you'll prepare approximately 1.5 kg of all-natural miso using only soybeans, rice koji, salt, and water.

You'll also enjoy a rare tasting session featuring three different homemade misos, experiencing how ingredients and aging affect flavor, aroma, and color.

Once you learn the process, you'll gain a lifelong skill that allows you to create endless variations using different beans and fermentation periods.

Drawing from my experiences visiting traditional miso breweries across Japan, I'll also share insights into natural fermentation methods and the unique characteristics of long-aged miso.
