Hikari Miso has launched the "Koji no Hana" (Flower of Koji) series, a brand established with the concept of "koji products" made from carefully selected ingredients to provide family health and peace of mind. The new releases include "Koji no Hana Organic Barley Miso - No Additives" and "Koji no Hana Organic Brown Rice Miso - No Additives."
Hikari Miso is a Nagano-based miso manufacturer that offers miso products, focusing on "additive-free" and "organic" varieties, both domestically and internationally. The company has been dedicated to organic miso production for over 30 years, even before Japan's organic certification system was established, and holds the No. 1 position in Japan's organic miso market (※1).
The newly released "Koji no Hana Organic Barley Miso - No Additives" and "Koji no Hana Organic Brown Rice Miso - No Additives" are meticulously crafted products using organic barley, organic brown rice, and organic soybeans.
With the growing health consciousness, menus and products utilizing grains like barley and brown rice have become commonplace. However, barley miso and brown rice miso are rare nationwide. These products are launched with the desire for everyone to enjoy the diverse flavors of miso in a healthy way. For those unfamiliar with barley or brown rice miso, we encourage you to experience their unique deliciousness, distinct from your usual miso.

Hikari Miso and Sustainable Food
In recent times, food choices are increasingly being made not only from the perspective of safety and security but also from a "sustainable" viewpoint, signifying "sustainable development for people, society, and the global environment." "Food sustainability" refers to the creation of a sustainable food system to ensure that we can continue to eat well not just now, but far into the future.
As more people choose organic foods cultivated with environmental consideration, and interest in this area grows, Hikari Miso has long incorporated the concept of sustainability, which minimizes the burden on the natural environment, into its operations, in addition to producing delicious, safe, and secure products.
