About us
Born in a restaurant kitchen. Made for yours.
Our story
What if the restaurant's sauces were always in the fridge?
Kan, our company president, owns a restaurant. Yet entertaining at home used to feel like a chore — guests always expected something special from him.
Then came an idea: what if the sauces from the restaurant were always in his own refrigerator? Simply drizzling Kizuna over boiled vegetables earned praise. Chicken marinated in shio koji and grilled had everyone asking for the recipe. As dishes filled the table, so did the smiles.
That feeling — of food that brings people together — is what kizuna means: the bonds between us.
Flavour philosophy
Complete Japanese seasoning in a bottle. Our sauces are made with shio koji — a traditional Japanese seasoning — for natural umami, so a single pour can finish a dish.
