Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the 250ml the same recipe as the larger Kikkoman bottles? A: Yes — identical naturally brewed recipe across all sizes. The only difference is the bottle volume.
Q: Is Kikkoman Soy Sauce 250ml gluten-free? A: No — it contains wheat. For gluten-free, we stock Kikkoman Tamari Gluten Free Soy Sauce.
Q: Is the 250ml good value compared to larger sizes? A: It's a great way to try Kikkoman before committing to a larger bottle, but if you cook Asian food regularly, the 600ml or 1L offers better value per millilitre.
Q: How long will a 250ml bottle last? A: Depends on how often you cook with it — for a couple cooking Asian food a few times a week, expect it to last 2–4 weeks. Once opened, use within 1 month at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 3 months.
