This is my go-to sesame oil. It's mild and not overly-roasted but rich in sesame aromatics. And the body is so silky! I usually use mine sparingly and as a finishing oil since the flavor and texture really cut through all other oils and flavors, but if I'm making something special, I'll use it in the pan as cooking oil. I love adding a splash to sauteed veggies or meats, and also use it in marinades, sauces, and dressings.

Etsuji Wada, the 4th generation owner who's considered 'the best sesame roaster in Japan', has been personally roasting Wadaman sesame seeds for over 45 years. Sesame roasting is a lot like coffee roasting and attention to detail goes a long way. Wadaman sesame seeds go through a meticulous six-step cleaning process, and a three-step roasting process at three different temperatures. This all helps to extract the maximum amount of flavor. Wadaman sesame oils are pressed in small batches and are only lightly pressed resulting in lower yields of the highest quality sesame oil.
