WHAT IS YAKUMI?

Literally meaning “medicine taste”, yakumi (薬味) was historically used as both medicine and food seasoning in small quantities to enhance taste of each main dish (for example, wasabi). The subtle flavors added by yakumi are essential to heighten sophistication and depth of taste, a crucial element in the global success of Japanese cuisine.

At Yakumi, through our expertise and passion, we dedicate ourselves to Japanese startups and small companies and aim to be a catalyst for their global growth.
