note: Current panel as published by the maker; kikkoman.co.uk and kikkoman.no give identical values (^kikkoman-no). The English label photographed on 2025-08-03, whose ingredient list still has ethyl alcohol, prints per 100 ml 450 kJ / 107 kcal, fat 0 g, saturates 0 g, carbohydrate 6.9 g, sugars 3.9 g, protein 9.7 g, salt 9.1 g. On both panels kcal x 4.184 matches kJ within rounding, but energy is above the 4/4/9 figure from the macros (64 and 66 kcal); EU Annex XIV counts ethanol at 29 kJ/g and organic acids at 13 kJ/g in declared energy (^eur-lex), so this gap is not a typing error. Open Food Facts' typed 265.2 kJ and protein 9.2 g match neither label; Matinfo and Ernær give the older panel "per 100 g" with protein 6.9 g, against 9.7 g on the photographed label.

## About <!--about-->
Kikkoman's naturally brewed soy sauce with less salt in the 150 ml glass table dispenser, sold in Norway under barcode 8715035130104 and listed by UK retailers.[^ernaer][^orientalmart] Kikkoman says a special process removes 43 % of the salt of its regular soy sauce, and the sauce carries the V-label for vegans and vegetarians.[^kikkoman-uk] The pack names Kikkoman Foods Europe B.V. in the Netherlands as brewer and Kikkoman Trading Europe GmbH in Düsseldorf as European distributor, and states that KIKKOMAN is a registered trademark of Kikkoman Corporation, Japan.[^off] That brewery, in Hoogezand-Sappemeer, completed its first production run in 1997 and later added Less Salt Soy Sauce to its range.[^kfe-25] The Norwegian trade register also gives the Netherlands as country of origin.[^matinfo]

One barcode carries more than one label: the front photograph from December 2024 is a Danish and Norwegian label, and the back, ingredient and nutrition photographs from August 2025 show an English label.[^off] That English label lists water, soybeans, wheat, salt, spirit vinegar, ethyl alcohol and sugar, as does a UK retailer.[^asiandukan] The maker's current list on its UK and Norwegian sites has no ethyl alcohol and a lower energy value, 89 kcal against 107 kcal per 100 ml, so the photographed rows are filed as an earlier revision.[^kikkoman-uk][^kikkoman-no] Norway's Matinfo record, last updated in 2019, gives a third wording with salt at 9.1 %, ethanol and acidity regulators; it is kept as Norwegian ingredient text rather than as rows.[^matinfo] In Norway the supplier is Haugen-Gruppen AS, and Ernær records dated prices at Oda, Meny, Kiwi and Rema 1000 in August and September 2026.[^ernaer] Open Food Facts tags the Netherlands as a country of sale, but no Dutch listing for this barcode was found, so the Netherlands appears only as country of origin.[^off]
