Did you know?
BPA (banned in baby bottles) is found in plastic water bottles
A potentially lethal chemical called bisphenol A (BPA), which is banned in baby bottles, is found in plastic water bottles.
Worrying levels of BPA are leaching into the water in plastic bottles.
Participants’ levels of BPA increased by two thirds after drinking from a plastic bottle or a week.
BPA mimics the female hormone oestrogen, which may lead to severe health problems including reducing fertility among women who already have fertility problems.

Why Washoku Water for Dashi?
Dashi is all about subtlety and balance, coaxing deep umami from ingredients like kombu (kelp) and katsuobushi (bonito flakes). But if the water is too soft, too hard, or overly stripped of minerals, it can flatten flavors or overpower the delicate essence that defines Japanese cuisine.
Washoku Water—specifically filtered through the Washoku DASHI Purifier Pitcher—is crafted to:
- 🌊 Retain the right balance of minerals essential for drawing out umami without clouding the broth
- 🌿 Avoid chlorine and impurities that might interfere with kombu’s natural flavor profile
- 🍲 Support proper hydration of kombu, encouraging optimal extraction for a clean, well-rounded broth
- 🎌 Respect the washoku philosophy, where the water is not neutral—it’s part of the culinary story
