千金丹 Senkintan Black Sesame Paste

A century-old brand from Sanuki, Japan, dedicated to natural wellness and guided by the belief that diet is as important as health, bringing nutrition into everyday life.

Founded in 1875 (Meiji 8) in Kagawa Prefecture, Okauchi Senkintan began as a pioneer in traditional household remedies along the scenic Seto Inland Sea. The company's original formulation gained nationwide acclaim after successfully relieving the stomach ailments of an Imperial family member, an event that earned the brand a prestigious royal trademark endorsement.

For generations, the company's dedicated traveling vendors journeyed across Japan to deliver health and relief directly to households. Today, Okauchi Senkintan has evolved its historical expertise in natural herbs and nutrient extraction into the creation of nourishing, high-quality foods. Operating from its historic roots in Kagawa, the brand continues its long-standing legacy of wellness through health-conscious products, including its signature "Micro Paste" Black Sesame Spreads.
