Our History

In 1979, American Miso Company was founded with the mission of producing traditional handmade miso in the United States. Great Eastern Sun Trading Company was established in 1981 for the purpose of distributing both American Miso Company's Miso Master organic handmade miso and healthy, traditional imported Asian foods that are vitally important to a natural foods diet.

Miso Master organic misos are produced by traditional means, using domestically sourced grains and beans and handmade koji. They are naturally aged without temperature control, yeast accelerants, or preservatives used by many commercial miso makers. Our other brands, Emerald Cove, Emperor's Kitchen, HealthSavor, Organic Planet, Sushi Sonic, and Sweet Cloud contribute to our mission of bringing only the best Asian foods and condiments to market.

For more than 40 years, we've remained committed to the ideals with which we began: to provide the highest quality natural and organic foods for the health of ourselves and our planet.

We love healthy food, and healthy food comes from a healthy planet.
