Kikkoman Soy Sauce 1L | Authentic Naturally Brewed Japanese Soy Sauce

The 1L Kikkoman is the choice for households and kitchens that take their cooking seriously. Naturally brewed since 1630 using just four ingredients — soybeans, wheat, salt, and water — this is soy sauce the way it was meant to be made. Slow fermentation builds a depth of flavour that no chemically processed alternative can match: rich, rounded umami with a clean finish that elevates everything it touches.

At this size, Kikkoman 1L is the everyday workhorse of the Asian kitchen. Whether you're dipping sushi on a Friday night, building a stir-fry marinade, or seasoning a big batch of fried rice, a full litre means you cook with confidence and never run out mid-dish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is Kikkoman Soy Sauce 1L gluten-free? A: No — it contains wheat. If you need a gluten-free option, we stock Kikkoman Tamari Gluten Free Soy Sauce, which is brewed without wheat.

Q: Why buy the 1L over the 600ml? A: The 1L offers better value per millilitre and is ideal if you cook Asian food regularly or want to avoid restocking too often. For restaurants or high-volume kitchens, we also stock the 1.5L.

Q: Does Kikkoman Soy Sauce need to be refrigerated? A: Not before opening. Once opened, refrigerating it preserves the flavour and colour for up to 3 months. At room temperature, use within 1 month of opening.

Q: Can I use Kikkoman for non-Japanese Asian cooking? A: Absolutely — Kikkoman works beautifully across Chinese, Korean, Thai, and Vietnamese dishes. It's a universal Asian kitchen staple.

Q: Does Fabasian deliver Kikkoman across South Africa? A: Yes — we deliver nationwide including Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, and all major cities.
