Kadoya Sesame Oil, 22.10 Fl Oz

Ok, you win. This IS the best sesame oil. I kept sniffing around this brand, and would buy something else for a little (or a lot) cheaper. Would taste fine, but I was curious if there was something better. Something that really gives a punch of toasted sesame flavor. Restaurants seem to get that flavor right, and I could not mimic it at home with what I have (name brands even!). So I would see reviews mentioning this is the best (as in, I was on OTHER brand pages and people would say that Kadoya is better). And so, I made my way back over here and bought a bottle (in fact, I bought one then bought another on subscribe & save). WOW so good. I could tell it was going to be amazing as soon as I took the cap off. That aroma is just gorgeous, the taste directly off my finger is exactly what I have been missing when I want that deep toasted flavor. Robust sesame taste, unmistakable. MMmmmm! Now to clarify.. this does not directly say "toasted". But look at that deep dark color! THAT is toasted, roasted whatever my friends. Ingredients: "sesame seed oil". Then it says, "Kadoya Pure Sesame Oils brings ROASTED flavor by sprinkling to your meal such as ramen , Yakitori, & BBQ marinade sauce"

Great quality and taste; bonus points for being kosher and authentic!

It tastes good and good price

Really like the roasted taste.

22.1oz $16.49 at time of purchase. Much better deal than smaller bottles. I’ve tried quite a few sesame oils over the years, and this one consistently stands out. The flavor is intensely nutty, slightly smoky, and very aromatic—exactly what you want from a high-quality toasted sesame oil. Just a small drizzle can completely transform a dish, whether it’s stir-fries, noodles, marinades, or even simple rice. What really impressed me is how potent it is compared to cheaper brands. You don’t need much at all, which actually makes the bottle last longer than expected. Many reviewers mention the same thing: it’s not meant to be used like a cooking oil, but more as a finishing oil—and that’s where it shines. The oil appears to be made from 100% sesame seeds with no fillers, which contributes to the clean, authentic taste. It’s also widely regarded as a pantry staple in Asian cooking because of its ability to add depth and umami to dishes. That said, because it’s so strong, it may not be ideal if you prefer a mild sesame flavor. Also, proper storage matters—keeping it sealed and in a cool place helps preserve its aroma over time. ✅ Pros Rich, bold, and authentic roasted sesame flavor Very aromatic—enhances dishes instantly High quality, made from sesame seeds only Long-lasting, since only small amounts are needed Great for finishing dishes, dressings, and marinades ❌ Cons Strong flavor may overpower dishes if overused Not ideal for high-heat cooking Bottle size may feel pricey upfront (though it lasts) Needs proper storage to maintain freshness 🧾 Summary If you’re looking for a genuine, restaurant-quality sesame oil, this is a fantastic choice. It’s flavorful, concentrated, and versatile—but best used sparingly as a finishing touch rather than a cooking base. While it may cost more than generic options, the quality and potency make it well worth it.

This is a very good quality sesame oil but don't do like i did...ordered this 22oz to save money on what i thought would be the "economy size", but that nutty sesame flavor that tastes so good doesn't last very long! From the moment it's opened, the flavor goes away gradually and here it is three weeks later and I've only used maybe half the 22oz bottle--but the sesame is about half as tasty as when i first opened it. Sesame oil oxidizes" which means the flavor changes over time. While it doesn't taste bad (yet), it just doesn't have the sesame aroma or nutty taste i am looking for. Unless you're feeding a big family or serving food in a restaurant, probably better to get the 11oz size so the flavor is still ready when you are.

Wonderful stuff. Will fill your kitchen with deliciousness. If there is any better toasted sesame oil, I don't know if it.

Great sesame oil
