Whale Yamato-ni
Whale Yamato-ni features a sweet and savory seasoning that pairs perfectly with both rice and sake. It is a representative preserved food of Taiji Town. Yamato-ni, made by simmering whale meat thoroughly in soy sauce and sugar, has long been widely enjoyed in canned form. This dish was born from the wisdom of daily life in Taiji—the birthplace of traditional Japanese whaling—where every precious part of the whale is gratefully utilized without waste. Its firm texture and rich flavor are a perfect match for freshly cooked white rice, and it also serves as an excellent snack for evening drinks. We invite you to taste the flavors of Taiji, which carry forward 400 years of whaling culture to the present day. Since it can be stored at room temperature for a long time, it is also a very practical item for souvenirs.
