MANUFACTURING PROCESS AND LOCATION FEATURE OF SOY SAUCE BREWING FACILITIES IN SHODOSHIMA

Abstract

Shodoshima, which is located in the islands of Kagawa Prefecture, has rapidly developed its soy sauce brewing industry since the end of the Meiji era. Currently, soy sauce companies are roughly divided into four patterns according to the brewing process. It has also become clear that the placement characteristics are variously developed depending on the presence or absence of major brewing rooms.
