Here’s a variety that I found in one of MiauMall’s Nakama Noodles subscription boxes! Inside, they have 8-10 different varieties from Japan! If you’d like to get one, don’t forget to use the coupon code THERAMENRATER for a discount! Let’s see what they had to say about this one – “Let’s take a fall break with a quick trip to Toyama, with a beautiful mountain painted with all of the fall colors this time of year! This black shoyu ramen is a famous Toyama variety that combines dark, deep soy sauce, pepper and chicken for tasty soup full of flavor!”
I’ve had a few Toyama black varieties – and it’s truly dark stuff. Let’s check it out!

Sure, it’s black, but aside from that I’m not really crazy about it. Is it bad? No, just not great. 3.25 out of 5.0 stars. JAN bar code 4901071405526.
