Japanese Crack
The Cen-Tex Smoker

This is the best shoyu/soy sauce I have ever tasted in my life. I put it on/in everything. The Umami is incredible. Priced more like bourbon at $40 per 750ml bottle but worth every penny. Never tasted anything like it. They have a fish sauce I'm going back for this weekend. You are welcome.

I’ll have to check it out. But if I like it too, does that make us both Japanese crack whores? I feel like this is kind of an existential question."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

Same expense acct as before?
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Isn't Japanese crack usually pixelated? It does look smaller when it isn't. Anyway, I'm intrigued.

$30 on amazon and the fish sauce is available.

Many years ago when this company first started I tried a few of their sauces and they also made small batch whisky barrel soy sauce. It was nice but I never thought it was worth the premium pricing (at least not for my plebian pallate).If you haven't already tried it you may want to give it a shot - https://bourbonbarrelfoods.com/product/bluegrass-soy-sauce/I see they have added ponzu to their lineup; I use a lot of ponzu and may have to give their stuff a try but at that price I'm pretty sure it won't be something I'll be repeat ordering often.

and I ordered the fish sauce this morning. I picked up the shoyu at Central Market. I actually paid $49.99 for it. It's $40 on Amazon but $9.99 shipping. They have a smoked Shoyu and a Cherry Blossom version as well. I want to try them all. I can stop stealing little sips of this one.

I would probably drink the entire bottle and go into a salt coma.

I can totally see you taking occasional breaks from work to wander into your kitchen to take shots of whiskey-barrel aged soy sauce.

That is exactly what is happening. I put a little in my sauteed spinach for my omelette this morning. I. Can't. Stop.JohnInCarolina said:

What next for the whiskey barrel flavor infusion?? At least my palate is so trashed from years of Tabasco sauce (aged in Jack Daniels barrels) and helping to empty those whiskey barrels of their original product I can pass on this one.

Might be apropos to create a signature sauce for butt blast and call it butt crack. Just a thought.

Maybe twice the cost of Crown. Value? I don’t value Crown very highly, so maybe 4-5x?fishlessman said:im out, thats twice the value of crown
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER -
a 1.75 liter bottle is 37.99. im more a bulleit rye fan or tanguray, or hornitos for drinking but the crown goes fastest passing around a table at the lake. i dont like hosting but have no problem tossing out a bucket of ice and a handle on the patio, pour what you want when you want it, theres more when its gone. my neighbors are more formal filling empty cups as they see fitLegume said:
