Yawataya Isogoro
Maker of “Shichimi Togarashi no Tane”
Founded in 1736, Yawataya Isogoro began selling shichimi togarashi at the grounds of Nagano City’s Zenkoji Temple. Today, their iconic shichimi canister is still one of their best-selling products, and is one of the most popular souvenirs from Nagano.
Commitment to Quality and Sustainability
“Made with a special blend of seven ingredients, our shichimi togarashi is made with local ingredients made from our own farm as well as procured by our contract farmers, and handmade in small batches. As our hallmark product, it’s incredibly beneficial for our employees to experience firsthand the entire process of making shichimi togarashi.”
Spreading Shichimi Culture To The World
We have been expanding exports to 20 countries including the USA, UK, Australia, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, and France. Our mission is to share the versatility of shichimi with the world. The most popular product is our original signature shichimi, followed by the yuzu-flavoured shichimi. We are confident that our shichimi would be a great match with any dish, so please try them on your local dishes!
