Chosen by Tsujita-san himself, this tin is designed to store Yamatsu Tsujita's stone milled sansho powder and for using at the table. To fill, just remove the top, empty the spice pouch into the tin, and replace the top. When you're ready to add some spice to your dish, rotate the top until the holes align and then sprinkle the spice on your food. Rotate again to close. (Sansho sold separately.)
It is the perfect accompaniment on the table when you're serving grilled meats, BBQ eel, scallops, etc.
Tsujita-san recommends keeping his spices in the freezer when not using to preserve freshness.
Sansho sold separately.

Yamatsu Tsujita Co. Ltd. is located just outside Osaka, famous for their shichimi togarashi (Japanese seven spice mix) and stone-ground sansho.
Fourth generation owner Tsujita-san has single-handedly saved the cultivation of Japanese Takanotsume (Hawk's Claw) chili. This chili is three times hotter than regular peppers and a main component of his shichimi togarashi.
