[Saitama/Chichibu🇯🇵] Enjoying natural ice🧊 Asami Refrigeration

Asami Reizo is a long-established ice shop in Chichibu-gun, Saitama Prefecture, that shaved ice lovers should visit at least once. Founded in 1890, it boasts a long history and is known for still preserving the traditional "natural ice" 🧊 The biggest attraction is the unique fluffy texture of the shaved ice made with natural ice ♡ The natural ice is made slowly and carefully in the cold of winter, melting softly the moment you put it in your mouth, and has a gentle texture like light snow. This famous shop is visited by many people from far away for its exquisite texture that they have never tasted before. The syrup is also one of the attractions. There is a wide variety of handmade syrups made with seasonal fruits and ingredients, and the natural sweetness of strawberry, matcha, brown honey kinako, plum, etc. matches exquisitely with the ice ◎ It makes use of the deliciousness of the ingredients as they are, and it feels luxurious like a dessert. Some of the rare flavors are original to Asami Reizo, and are popular with repeat customers! The charm of Asami Reizo is in the quaint storefront and the surrounding nature. Enjoying shaved ice in a relaxed atmosphere while looking out at the gardens will let you fully experience the rich nature and history of Chichibu. Since it is open all year round, not just in summer, you can enjoy visiting as the scenery changes with the seasons. There is always a line, but the shaved ice is one you will want to line up for again 🎶 📍Address: 27-1 Kanazaki, Minano-machi, Chichibu-gun, Saitama 369-1621 🕰️Business hours: 10:00-16:30 (closed on Thursdays) #AbsolutelyFreeTrip #Chichibu
