Izumo Isjima Nori (Uppuru Nori)
The moment it touches your mouth, the scent of the ocean drifts through your nose, followed by a crisp, crunchy texture—this is a powerful rock seaweed, entirely different from ordinary nori. It is harvested only around Cape Isjima, which juts out into the Sea of Japan at the northern edge of Izumo City. Mentioned in the 'Izumo no Kuni Fudoki' written in 733, it is a prestigious product with a long history, having been presented to the Imperial Court during the Nara and Heian periods, and to the Shoguns during the Edo period. The harvest takes place only during the brief period from December to January. Each sheet is hand-picked from the rocks amidst the raging winter Sea of Japan. This is precisely why it is so rare and possesses such an extraordinary aroma. In Izumo, it is an indispensable ingredient for Ozoni (New Year's soup). Please enjoy this exceptional sea fragrance within your bowl.
