It's tough doing business in Japan, so Ando House must be doing something good to be in business since 1853. Before World War II, the family were manufacturing soy sauce and miso, a soya bean extract, as a side business but after the war when farm lands were emancipated, they went all out and since then, it has been their primary business activity. Before entering the house, you get hit by the aroma of soy sauce which is delightfully sweet and delicate. Inside the store, there is a warehouse that dates back to 1882 and built to be fire proof through its thick layered brick walls. lnside the store, you can sample the famous century old miso, but in a setting so modern, you do not feel like you´re in a building probably older than your great grandparents. Before making your exit, take a moment to take in the degree of effort and sophistication it took to display the bottles of soy sauce, miso and other delicacies. You might be tempted to buy a bottle of miso after!
