The first set, the 'Premium Crafted Tamari Set,' features "Double-Brewed Tamari (saishikomi); this variety is made by fermenting soybeans in brewed tamari, rather than brine, which results in a rich, intense flavor with twice the umami of regular soy sauce." Notably, this double-brewing method is rare, with only 1% of soy sauce produced using this process. Additionally, the set includes 'Seaweed Tamari,' a blend of "kombu, shiitake mushrooms, and rice-koji, which is fermented to create a flavor profile similar to traditional dashi." In addition to these offerings, SAN-J provides a 'DIY Tamari Dashi [Kit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/malibu-mango-smoothie-kit),' allowing users to craft their own dashi with customizable ingredients.
