Isogaba maware is a Japanese axiom that translates into “Make Haste Slowly.” It means to advance and grow, but to do so with tremendous thought and care. From its meticulous six-month natural brewing process to a heritage dating back to feudal Japan, Kikkoman has exemplified this philosophy since its humble beginnings in the seventeenth century. Film crews recently traveled to Walworth, Wisconsin, and Noda, Japan, to bring the story of Kikkoman’s rich family heritage to life. Directed by Academy Award nominated filmmaker Lucy Walker, Make Haste Slowly: The Kikkoman Creed premieres December 23.
