https://www.tamanoi.co.jp/ Kitchen Company Company (Headquarters: Kyoto Prefecture, Representative: [Representative's Name]), which operates in the prepared meal and restaurant business, is promoting a project focused on Japan's traditional basic seasonings "Sa-Shi-Su-Se-So" and "rice" as a new initiative to maximize the added value of its products and deliver authentic flavors to customers. Following the introduction of soy sauce from the long-established "Koyama Jozo" in Fushimi, Kyoto last month, we have decided to fully adopt vinegar from "Tamanoi Vinegar Co., Ltd." (Headquarters: Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture), a company boasting advanced technology and tradition, as the second phase of this project. Through this, we will accelerate the creation of products that further enhance the deliciousness of "rice," which Japanese people love, and elevate our customers' daily dining tables to "a slightly luxurious and truly reassuring time." ■ About Tamanoi Vinegar Co., Ltd. Tamanoi Vinegar Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture), chosen as a partner by Kitchen Company Company, is one of Japan's leading long-established vinegar manufacturers with a history of 117 years, inheriting tradition in the historic land of "Sakai," where vinegar brewing technology is said to have been first introduced to Japan. The company's greatest commitment is the use of "domestic rice" nurtured by Japan's rich natural environment. Using only carefully selected, high-quality domestic rice, the vinegar is meticulously crafted using proprietary brewing techniques cultivated over many years. It is characterized by a mellow richness and an elegant, crisp acidity with less of the pungent stimulation. Furthermore, a significant strength is their thorough commitment to "gluten-free," catering to modern health consciousness, diverse food needs, and allergies. Tamanoi Vinegar continues to provide safety and deliciousness adapted to the times while preserving traditional techniques. Their
