South River miso


This is the best miso available in the United States that I know about.

South River miso is the real deal, made the way miso was made for centuries in Japan. It might seem a little bit ridiculous to don specialized cotton socks and stomp through fermented azuki beans but that's exactly what they do.

The texture is different. It's lumpy. Regular commercial miso is likened to peanut butter in consistency. South River miso is not. This has little chunks, the texture is lighter, less compressed, less homogenous, altogether more pleasant.

Cost: More than ordinary miso, plus shipping. It's worth it. Lasts forever in the refrigerator. South River offers no discount for volume and no break on shipping.
Bottom line: $8.50 per 1LB jar (one-year miso) + shipping.
