Umezawa Wooden Cutting Board, Aomori Hiba Wood, 36 X 21 X 1.5 Cm, Made In Japan, 118

This cutting board is made from carefully selected straight-grained planks of Aomori cypress, one of Japan's three most beautiful forests.

Thanks to the hinokitiol contained in Aomori cypress, it has a higher antibacterial effect than resin cutting boards or cypress wood.

Finished to be thin at 1.5cm, it reduces the heavy feeling often associated with wooden cutting boards.

It features interlocking wood to prevent warping.

[About cypress oil] Cypress oil, which contains a large amount of hinokitiol (the source of the antibacterial component), may be released, causing stickiness. Cypress oil is harmless from a food hygiene perspective, but if it is a concern, it can be wiped off with vinegar diluted with hot water.
