Masamoto and Tsukiji Masamoto

[vadimk]

Does anyone know if those 2 brands are related by any chance ? just curious. thx

They are related but split up in the mid 1800s. Tsukiji Masamoto 築地　政本 has a storefront.
Whereas Masamoto Souhonten 正本　総本店　does not have a direct store front but sells a wider product line
through distributors.
