- KKkeith k.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7/30/24Excellent REAL hon Mirin form Japan. Not the fake BS called aji Mirin which to me is useless and such bad quality I really cannot understand why anyone would ever use that crap.
Excellent uplifting taste sensation which a mellow mouthfeel but superb high notes of citrus, umami and just overall a super high level taste experience. We use this with a little high level soy sauce from Japan and fresh lime juice to serve as a sauce for our Tuna tartare at our restaurant.
