MISO SWISS MADE

First Miso Producer in Swiss Romande area

Hi, I’m Azusa, the founder of SWISSMISO. I’ve been living in Switzerland for more than 10 years. I discovered a fascination with Japanese cuisine outside Japan. 

Japanese food is not only healthy and tasty but moreover, its philosophy is tied to the ecological approach. Local, seasonal ingredients are valued, recipes without wasting food are appreciated. As a Japanese, I’ve decided to carry on this culinary culture. That’s the reason why I created my small company!

We initiated this project as a way to bring consciousness to environmental issues. We couldn’t be happier, if the project inspires you to act something good for our land!

What is Miso ? Miso is a fermented soybean paste in Japan. It’s a key ingredient for making delicious Japanese dishes such as miso-soup. It’s used both in traditional and modern ways in Japan and has been gaining worldwide interest.

Based on Miso Paste, our popular product Miso-truffle (Instant homemade miso-soup) makes it easier to incorporate miso into your daily life!

Why you love SWISSMISO?

The reason is …

(*In Switzerland, it’s hard to get a sufficient quantity of rice)

🌿 Healthy 
It’s because Miso is a fermented food, good for digestion, better immunity, anti-aging with detoxification effects. It also boosts the number of beneficial bacteria, or probiotics, in your gut.

🌿 Artisanal 
We make the miso using the traditional Japanese method

Plenty of UMAMI* inside! (*It’s one of the five basic tastes)

The shop is currently under renovation. We are short of funds to purchase the following items,
