At first glance, a monastery and soy sauce may seem like an unusual pairing, and it is. But it’s exactly what sparked a collaboration grounded in shared curiosity. Moved by the beauty, the deep connection to nature, the craftsmanship, and the devotion and knowledge of the monastery, a natural partnership emerged. Sometimes, things just feel right.
The monastery’s unique microclimate and hands-on approach offer ideal conditions for cultivating unique seeds and crops on a small scale. Today, Sint-Catharinadal serves as a vital location for our crop trials, knowledge sharing, and gaining old, but new, but old, but new (agricultural) insights.

To honor our collaboration, we’ve created a special edition: Original Tomasu soy sauce, aged in a former Champagne barrel and completely dedicated to the monastery. One of the sisters unknowingly contributed by decorating the bottle with a beautiful hand-painted design and a saying:
“In simplicity lies the deepest truth.”
A phrase that perfectly captures our gratitude for the partnership and all the remarkable people/volunteers we’ve come to know along the way.
