Chushin Kobo Round Cast Iron Wind Bell "SHINMARU"

Morihan (1901) has been harvesting and producing high quality nori for 120 years and knows exactly how to create delicious, crisp, flavorful dried seaweed. Morihan has a unique production method to ensure the best quality for their nori.

Many contemporary producers use a hot air fan, which will quickly spread air and speed up the drying process, but Morihan works according to traditional methods, using an electric heating roaster with 5 different shelves: The nori slowly, and carefully dried and moved down a shelve after careful inspection every half-day. The process takes 2,5 days. As the seaweed is dried very gradually, the original flavor and strong umami remain and come through perfectly in the final nori sheets.
