At UMAMO, we’re all about bringing deep,
rich umami flavor to your cooking, naturally.

UMAMO is a nutrient-rich microalgae, grown and carefully fermented in
Okinawa, Japan, to capture bold, ocean-inspired umami without
relying on fish or animal ingredients.

It’s not a broth or a blend of different foods, it’s a pure,
plant-based ingredient packed with natural flavor and nutrients like DHA.

The name “UMAMO” comes from combining “umami,” the fifth taste, with “mo,”
the Japanese word for algae, because our microalgae are
bursting with savory richness.

Think of it as a sprinkle of magic that makes broths, sauces, plant-based meats, and everyday meals more delicious, while also being kind to the planet.
