You get a free bottle of soy sauce with the ticket. The soy sauce soft serve ice cream was interesting - a hint of umami.

You can smell the soy fragrance in the air!! Make sure to visit the wooden barrel aging room and also of course the ice cream!

Fun stop along my route. Entry fee was cheap, got free soy sauce and learned some history. Be sure to try the soy sauce ice cream!

A great way to find out how soy sauce is made! In the museum there were English explanations under the Japanese, so even though I can read kanji fairly well I felt like I understood the process better 😉 We couldn’t tour the factory but we did see the vats of beans and malt percolating. And the smell was something else!!

Nice to stop by if you are in the island - it’s interesting to know how soy sauce has been made in old days. Soy sauce ice cream is sold at the small shop next to the museum which seems to be more popular than the museum itself. Some souvenirs are also available. Free parking available and the whole area smells like soy sauce.
