4. SPECIALTY COLLECTION

Koji is not only about tradition—it’s also about creativity. Our Seasonal & Specialty
Collection explores how fermentation can elevate both the familiar and the unexpected.

We’ve crafted small-batch condiments from onion, garlic and tomato, transforming
everyday staples into versatile, Umami-rich seasonings. We’ve also experimented with
more inventive creations: gooseberry with its tart-sweet punch, Matcha with earthy
elegance, sweet Koji as a natural sugar substitute, and Amazake—often called a
“drinkable IV” in Japan for its rich vitamins, amino acids, and enzymes that support
digestion, energy, and overall wellness.

How to use it?

•  Onion, Garlic & Tomato Koji — Mix with olive oil for a quick dressing or sauce, blend
  into ground meat for richer flavor, finish a burger patty with an umami boost, or use
  it in pasta and pizza.
•  Gooseberry Koji — A refreshing accent for salads, ceviche, or chilled noodles.
•  Matcha & Sweet Koji — Perfect for sweets and desserts, from baked goods to
  creamy parfaits.
•  Amazake — Enjoyed as a nourishing drink on its own, or blended into lattes,
  smoothies, and desserts for natural sweetness and a healthful boost.

Some flavors are seasonal, others experimental, but all share the same vision: to push the
boundaries of what Koji can do. We are always excited to collaborate with chefs, creating
custom flavors and unique pairings that bring out the full potential of fermentation.
