HISAMI KYOTO specializes in the handcrafting and sales of traditional fermented fish "heshiko" using local fish and vegetables from Tango region, such as lightly pickled dishes and flavorful mackerel, tailored to modern low-salt preferences.
HISAMI's Heshiko is a next-generation fermented food that prioritizes "flavor and maturity." As times change, the strong salty taste traditionally used to extend the preservation period on the fermentation bed is no longer necessary. Therefore, leveraging the bounty of the sea and mountains in Tango, HISAMI minimizes the saltiness and fermentation odor inherent in fermented foods, bringing out the maximum "umami" flavor in their products.
HISAMI's Heshiko is not only perfect with rice but also pairs exceptionally well with sake, captivating many repeat customers with its surprisingly gentle taste.HISAMI KYOTO also offers a café space, and adjacent to it, the HISAMI local cafeteria serves exquisite dishes made with freshly caught seasonal seafood from Taiza Port and the abundant fresh vegetables grown in Tango's rich land.
