A handcrafted Japanese wooden barrel, made to carry fermentation culture into the future.

We partner with Kumpei, a Japanese artisan dedicated to crafting wooden barrels for fermentation.

Each barrel is handcrafted in Japan for making miso, pickles and other fermented foods. Over time, the wood develops its own microbial environment, adding depth and character to the food fermented inside.

Wooden fermentation barrels have supported Japanese fermentation for generations. By offering these barrels in Australia, we hope to support the artisans keeping this tradition alive and share this unique part of Japanese fermentation culture.
