About Sake Yeast

Sake yeast, which originates from rice, koji, and water, represents a unique aspect of Japanese culinary culture. Developed over 150 years ago, it is a primary ingredient in the famous sake-an-pan (sake-filled bread), a creation by Kimuraya Sohonten that has been cherished through generations. The company’s commitment to preserving traditional sake yeast makes its new creations not just pastries but a journey through Japan's rich culinary history.
