Features & How to Enjoy

Highlights

Point 1

Established in 1890, a Long-Standing Shaved Ice Shop

At Asami Reizo, you can enjoy shaved ice made with natural ice, which is limited in availability throughout the country. Shaved ice made with natural ice doesn't have the typical brain freeze sensation and can be enjoyed with a crispy texture. The natural ice used is made with clean water from Chichibu, giving it a delicate and flavorful taste. Shaved ice made with such natural ice is incredibly delicious and is a must-visit spot when visiting Nagatoro.

Point 2

Delicious and Flavorful Menu with a Focus on Ingredients

At Asami Reizo, there are always a variety of menu options, making it quite difficult to decide. The most popular menu item is the "Kuramoto Hiden Mitsu," which allows you to taste the natural flavor of ice. Another feature is the homemade fruit syrup, which is made with a focus on ingredients and comes in various flavors such as mandarin orange, strawberry, peach, grape, and melon. The fruit syrup has a refreshing taste that will make you feel cool. In addition, the ice coffee with shaved ice on top has a unique appearance and goes well with shaved ice, making it a recommended accompaniment to your shaved ice.

One of the reasons why many people visit Asami Reizo Kanazaki Honten is its retro atmosphere and the garden that overflows with openness and a sense of Japanese style. The interior of the shop, which was renovated from an old Japanese house and storehouse, has a Japanese atmosphere, allowing you to enjoy not only natural shaved ice but also a retro atmosphere at the same time. In addition, you can enjoy shaved ice in the garden, which overflows with a sense of Japanese style and openness, and spend a relaxing time while feeling the Japanese atmosphere.

Point 4

Relatively Empty Hotozan Michi Store

Asazumi Reizo has two stores, not just the Kanazaki main store, but also the Hotozan Michi store. The Kanazaki main store tends to be more crowded than the Hotozan Michi store, so if you're not particular about going to the main store, we recommend going to the Hotozan Michi store! However, during the summer and on weekends and holidays, even the Hotozan Michi store can get quite crowded, with a wait time of about 1-2 hours, so we recommend going early in the day!

Point 5

Unique and Cute Souvenirs from Asami Reizo

There are Asami Reizo original goods such as cute T-shirts, hand towels, tote bags, memo pads, and smartphone rings, all with the Asami Reizo logo. In addition, Asami Reizo's homemade products such as syrup and yokan (sweet red bean jelly) are also recommended as souvenirs.

Required time

Recommended to Visit with Plenty of Time

Asami Reizo is a popular natural shaved ice shop in Nagatoro that attracts many visitors from the Kanto region throughout the year. Even on weekdays during the summer, there is a wait time of about 30 minutes, and during summer vacation or on weekends and holidays, the wait time can be 2-3 hours. Therefore, it is recommended to visit with plenty of time in your schedule. Also, once the shaved ice is sold out, the shop will close, so it's best to go as early as possible. In addition to the Kanazaki main store, there is also another store (Hodoyama Michi store) that is often less crowded!

やっと、かき氷が食べれました。 3種類の食べ何処から選ぶ事から始まり。本館を選んだけど、人工甘味料のシロップで後悔。果汁の方がお勧めです。かき氷は、口の中で溶けて優しい。昭和レトロのお部屋も楽しめました。

2024年11月訪問。和三盆を使った秘伝みつのかき氷(黒あん、白あん、抹茶あん)に白玉を追加。かなり久しぶりに訪れましたがやっぱり美味しい。夏のかき氷も良いけど、寒い秋冬に暖かい部屋で食べるかき氷の幸福感はまた格別です。しかも空いてるのでオススメ。

初めて利用しました。メロンのかき氷を注文すると、普通メロンだと緑色を想像しますが、このお店は本物のメロンから、抽出した果汁を提供してくれて、香り、味ともに文句なしの商品でした。10月に伺いましたが、かき氷をテラスで食べるのに丁度よい気温で、寒くならず、最後まで美味しく頂けました。口直しに、梅干しが一粒ついていました。塩分控え目でこれも美味しく頂きました。価格は、1300円でしたが、それに増す、コスパが良い商品でした。
