UCHIBORI VINEGAR

Uchibori Vinegar was founded in 1876 (Meiji 9) by Junichi Uchibori. Initially producing clear vinegar, miso, and tamago-zu, the company has specialised in vinegar brewing since around 1965 (Showa 40). We strive to meet customer expectations and contribute to society through high-quality products befitting vinegar specialists and a rich product range. To produce fine vinegar, we uphold the principle that 'vinegar making begins with sake brewing' as our manufacturing philosophy, establishing 'water, air, and microorganisms' as the foundation of our existence. We deliver products worldwide, crafted through various unique methods such as rice vinegar production, where we mill rice in-house, create rice koji, brew sake, and then ferment it again into vinegar. We also apply our advanced technical capabilities to products like high-acidity brewed vinegar, which helps reduce environmental impact during transportation. Uchibori Vinegar aims to remain a multifaceted enterprise essential to society. We strive to achieve sustainable growth that positively impacts not only our customers, but also local communities, business partners, our employees and their families, and the global environment.
