Located in a corner of Kanazawa where traditional townhouses remain, Shijimaya Honpo is a long-established fermented food store founded in 1875 (Meiji 8). Blessed with the pure underground waters of Hakusan, the store was founded by the founder, Shijimaya Yoemon, as a soy sauce store. The store later expanded to include miso, koji, and pickles, and is now known as a leader in Ishikawa's fermentation culture.
