Ohsawa Genuine Mirin - Sweet Rice Seasoning Wine for Japanese Cuisine, Aged over 9 Months for Umami Flavor, Handcrafted, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free - 12.68 oz

This is an exceptional mirin, it’s delicate and flavorful. I use this at finish for several dishes where I want a tempered sweetness that is less powerful than sugar. Excellent on Asian fare, especially pho, but I sprinkle it on Salisbury steak as well. Well worth the price imho.

Super tasty. Great when making fried rice with sesame oil and soy sauce .

My tempura dipping sauce is now restaurant worthy using this Mirin. I've hesitated for years to spend this much. Big mistake. This Mirin is like a fine wine compared to a cheap cooking wine. My recipe for a Tempura Dipping Sauce is: 3 Tbspns of good Japanese made Kikkoman Soy sauce 2 Tbspns of Ohsawa Mirin 1 teaspoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon Dashi microwave 1 minute or heat till sugar dissolves. Buy it.

This is good ,not salty crap.

I ran out of this and had to pickup something locally for my Tamagoyaki. Like most other Aji Mirin's it was awful. This Ohsawa Genuine Mirin is awesome. Yes, it's pricy but worth every penny.

Tasty and great for Asian cooking. Better than typical mirin sold for cooking in the grocery store.

Not fake mirin. Has more complexity than Aji-mirin from grocery store.

I am almost reluctant to make this review. If you want to make top quality Japanese food (or Chinese), you need to have this Mirin. You get what you pay for. The quality means everything. I used to be able to find this in the store, but it stopped being sold. The others i found and tried were garbage compared to this Mirin.
