Product description
This product is a 0.5 gallon (64 fl oz) jug of Kikkoman less-sodium tamari, formulated without wheat so it is suitable for gluten-free diets. The container delivers a dark, savory soy-based seasoning that provides umami depth across dishes.
The tamari is produced from soy (no wheat), using a reduced-sodium recipe that is advertised as approximately 40% lower in sodium than the brand’s regular gluten-free tamari. The liquid is the same versatile-viscosity condiment you’d expect for cooking and finishing.
Use it straight from the jug or decant into a smaller pour bottle for daily tabletop use. It works well for dipping sauces, marinades for proteins and vegetables, stir-fry seasoning, and salad dressings. The half-gallon format is sized for households or kitchens that go through soy seasoning frequently.
The packaging is a large plastic bottle with a dispensing cap designed for pouring or refilling. It stores easily in a refrigerator door and seals to prevent leaks during normal storage.
Pros
- Full 0.5-gallon volume for frequent use
- Gluten-free (no wheat) tamari formula
- Reduced sodium while retaining savory flavor
Cons
- Dispensing cap has a relatively large opening
- Large bottle may require decanting for tabletop use
- Still contains notable sodium despite reduction
VerdictA full-size, flavorful gluten-free tamari that keeps much of the classic soy profile while cutting sodium by about 40% versus the brand’s regular gluten-free tamari. Great for frequent cooks or households that use a lot of soy-based seasoning. The large bottle is economical and holds well in the fridge door, though the dispensing cap can be wide for direct tabletop pouring.

Watch sodium and potassium if you have conditions
Reasonable for people watching blood pressure, but always check the sodium on ‘low-sodium’ labels. If you have kidney issues, also confirm potassium levels for the brand you choose.

Reliable gluten-free bulk option
Solid gluten-free tamari that I buy to refill a smaller dispenser. Hard to find GF soy locally, so this jug is cost-effective. Flavor matches regular soy well. The bottle is handy and leak-free, though the cap’s large opening makes direct table use a bit awkward; perfect for refilling and fridge storage.

Less salt but full flavor
This tamari tastes very much like traditional soy but with less salt — you don’t feel like anything is missing. It’s made without wheat, so it’s gluten-free. I chose it for its taste and am pleased with the result.

Great for a household that cooks a lot
We’re vegan and use a lot of soy-based seasoning. This tamari being low-sodium and in a large size makes it economical — it lasts a long time in our kitchen.

Gluten-free staple after celiac diagnosis
After a family member’s celiac diagnosis I tried many GF tamaris. This Kikkoman version matched the flavor we wanted. Half a gallon seems large but it works in nearly every dish we used to add soy to. Very glad to have a dependable gluten-free option.
