Sendai's Miso

With over 400 years of history, Sendai's miso is some of Japan's finest. Unlike the white miso of the Kansai area, miso in Sendai has a reddish hue and a dry, rich taste that has made it very popular. Date Masamune actually built Japan's first miso factory, "Onensogura" to make sure his army would always have a steady supply.
There is so much more to miso than miso soup. Experience all the flavor of Sendai at one of our many ryokan!
