what's inside
Four ingredients.
Two centuries of know-how.
No caramel color. No preservatives. No "natural flavors." Just the same four things Japanese brewers have used since the Edo period — and time.
Soybeans
Non-GMO, USDA Organic certified soybeans. Steamed, inoculated with koji, and left to ferment.
Wheat
Roasted wheat adds the rounded, slightly sweet backbone that makes Dojo perfect for finishing — not just cooking.
Sea Salt
Japanese sea salt, carefully balanced for ~25% less sodium than standard soy sauce without losing depth.

Marinade
Deep flavor into meat, tofu, or veggies before cooking.
Sauté

Built different
from the bottle up.
Most soy sauce in American fridges is brewed in days, not months. Dojo is barrel-aged for a full year in Noda, Chiba — then shipped in a squeeze bottle designed so you actually use the good stuff every day.

questions?
We got answers.
How is Dojo different from Kikkoman or San-J?
Dojo is brewed in Japan using traditional barrel-aging methods over 12 months. Most grocery-store soy sauces are industrially fermented in days. Ours has four ingredients, USDA Organic certification, and ~25% less sodium — plus a squeeze bottle built for everyday cooking.
What's in the subscription?
One 16.9 fl oz bottle delivered every 6 weeks at 15% off ($11.90 vs $14.00). Skip, pause, or cancel anytime from your account — no commitments, no guilt.
Does it need to be refrigerated?
Refrigerate after opening for best flavor — it'll stay fresh for up to 2 years sealed, or 6 months opened in the fridge. The squeeze bottle keeps things clean either way.
Is it gluten-free?
Dojo contains wheat as part of traditional shoyu brewing. We don't recommend it for celiac or strict gluten-free diets. A tamari-style Dojo is on the roadmap — join the waitlist to hear first.
