Shaved Ice Specialty Store "Hyogakudokoro Nijiiro" with Natural Ice Shaved ice with traditional Japanese traditions, available for a limited time only in Nagoya and other cities.
株式会社ジェイフード
J-Food Corporation (Location: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture) will sell shaved ice from the shaved ice specialty store "Hyogakudo Nijiiro," which uses natural ice from "Tokujiro IV" in Nikko, mainly in Nagoya, for a limited time during the summer.
Hyogakudokoro Nijiiro
The star of the show is "natural ice from Nikko.
Natural ice of Tokujiro Yondaime," the "best of the best" by Nikko ice farmers.
Preparation begins around December. After collecting rock purified water in a purification tank through distribution pipes and sterilizing and disinfecting it, the water is poured into the production ponds.
The ice is then poured into the pond, where it slowly grows into natural ice in cold weather. (Sometimes, the ice is broken and re-constructed from scratch, depending on the condition of the ice and how well it is doing.)
After about two weeks, when the ice is about 15 cm thick, it is cut into pieces of a certain size (about 800 x 450 x 150 mm) and stored in an ice house until shipment. In order for natural ice to grow beautifully, it must be carefully managed daily by removing dust, dirt, and snow, as well as by carrying the heavy ice cubes to the icehouse, which requires heavy labor. In recent years, the effects of global warming have become more serious, as temperatures have not fallen sufficiently, and midwinter rains and humid snowfalls, which were not common in the past, have increased, making it difficult for the ice to grow thick enough to be used.
~Now, in the sawdust of Nikko cedar trees, it is quietly waiting for summer to arrive.
Natural ice is the main ingredient in Nijiro's shaved ice.
The shaved ice at "Hyogakudo Nijiro" is made with less syrup. This is because we want you to enjoy the delicate texture of natural ice, with the ice as the main ingredient. In ancient times, natural ice was even eaten by aristocrats in the Heian period (794-1192).
It has a simple but profound flavor, and is a summer tradition in Japan.
We will stick to the "natural ice! No-frills, natural "Japanese ingredient syrups
The supporting role of natural ice, Nijiro's syrup is free of any flavoring, coloring, or preservatives.
They have a natural, gentle flavor that enhances the delicate texture of natural ice.
