One of my staples

I use this on my savoury breakfast rice porridge, and it really livens it up. Please bring back the larger 500ml size. Buying multiple smalll bottles is rather wasteful of the resources used to make glass.

Hi Elisabeth, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We will pass your feedback on to the relevant department.

Excellent. Love umboshi but can't afford the price. The liquid and the paste is excellent substitute for my cravings.
