About us
Creative Koji LLC, founded by Gabe Garms, is a Pacific Northwest-based company dedicated to crafting artisanal miso products using locally grown and sourced ingredients. We combine traditional Japanese techniques with innovative local flavors, offering consumers high-quality, non-traditional miso options that celebrate the region's diverse culinary heritage.
We prioritize environmental stewardship by growing many of our own ingredients and sourcing directly from local farmers. This commitment supports sustainable practices and ensures exceptional taste experiences for our customers.
Our product line features unique miso flavors like pink bean/king bolete, dandelion root, black bean and burdock root, alongside experimental blends with wild foods and seasonal produce. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control measures to uphold our standards of excellence.
Beyond retail sales, we collaborate with restaurants and food enthusiasts to showcase miso's versatility. We also engage the community through educational workshops and tastings, fostering a deeper appreciation for fermented foods and local ingredients.
