Is Kikkoman Sweet Soy Sauce Halal?

HARAM

This sweet soy sauce lists alcohol in the miso ingredient; an alcohol-free or plain flavouring declaration would settle the concern.

Hanafi, Jafari, Hanbali — their opinion: the trace cannot intoxicate, so it is allowed.

Shafi, Maliki — their opinion: any liquid intoxicant is not allowed, or the alcohol-carried flavouring makes the food impure, so it should be avoided.
