About the brand

Since it uses rare and valuable natural Ezo mountain cherry blossoms, it is a "safe" and "secure" smoke material that is not sprayed with any chemicals.

Ezo cherry blossoms have a lower tar content than other tree species, so you can prevent failure due to over-smoking and always make delicious smoked products.

Since the moisture is adjusted, failure (acidity) due to moisture emitted from the smoke material is prevented.

EIJI　KURACHI

This is Iwakura Co., Ltd., which has been growing with forests for more than 110 years in Tomakomai City, Hokkaido. We make effective use of wood, set a goal of zero carbon dioxide emissions, and actively promote activities that contribute to the preservation of the global environment and the reduction of impact. Wood has a variety of faces (characteristics) just like humans. For example, a tree whose trunk has grown strong and thick over a long period of time can be used as furniture, and a tree that can grow large in a short time can be used as energy instead of fossil fuels. Trees grow by absorbing carbon dioxide, so the existence of trees is very important for curbing global warming. In order to properly manage forests (long-term planning of the balance between supply and demand) and deliver Hokkaido timber to many people, we consider it to be a social role to provide products in various forms. Each product is processed by humans in every process, from bagging one by one. Please feel the energy of wood.

　★Effective use of fallen trees from the 2018 Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake　

On September 6, 2018, an earthquake occurred in the central eastern part of the Iburi region of Hokkaido, causing landslides and other damage to many mountains. The amount of damage to the forestry industry in Hokkaido is said to be more than 50 billion yen.

At that time, we worked with local governments as an emergency measure to collect, transport, and sort timber that had been buried by landslides. It took an extraordinary amount of effort and time. Many of the timbers are bent and broken along the way, making them of little use. Originally, fine timber that has passed a long time is transformed into furniture and other items with high utility value when it is time to cut down, protecting the livelihoods of many forestry workers and processing companies.

I wondered if it would be possible to commercialize only the rare and valuable Ezo mountain cherry blossoms from the wood that had nowhere to go, and to use a portion of the sales for the reforestation that was damaged by the disaster.

(Through the Iburi Forestry Youth Department, which is active in the Iburi and Hidaka regions of Hokkaido, we started donating forest road maintenance and tree planting.)

What are we doing?

Our main business was to manage forests, fell, accumulate, and transport timber, so we did not have the experience or equipment to give shape to commercialization. I keep asking myself questions every day.

As I researched, I focused on "smoke materials" that are not sold in Hokkaido. The more I learned about the potential of Ezo cherry blossoms, the more I became inquisitive about smoked materials.

We don't know how much we can sell, so we can't introduce large machines, so we go to several factories to make samples. Ezo mountain cherry blossoms being swallowed by the machine. And I still can't forget the excitement I felt when I saw the smoked chips that came out of the other side.

The chips, which are finely ground at the factory, are shaken and enter the drying process.

After drying thoroughly, check for foreign matter manually.

All bagging is done by hand with love.

Commitment to the product

There are various species of smoke materials, and cherry blossoms are said to go very well with foods with habits. I think the reason is that it is sweet and fragrant. It goes very well with deer and wild boar meat, which is called game. Of course, it can also be used for other ingredients, so I think it's a good idea to try smoking from Ezo mountain cherry blossoms at first, and then try other tree species such as oak when you get used to it.

In addition, there are different types of cherry blossoms, and among them, Ezo Mountain cherry blossoms are said to contain the least amount of tar in the smoke. The No. 1 reason why I failed when I smoked it was that it was too strong.

For those who are trying smoking for the first time or those who cannot smoke well, we recommend using Ezo Mountain Cherry Blossoms.

There are two types of smoke materials: finely crushed [smoke chips] and compressed and hardened [smoked wood].

★ Testimonials ★

In order to improve the coloring, if you smoke it for a long time, the result is very ugly, and it is not tasty at all, and there were many failures, but by using smoke, the failure disappeared. (Sapporo City, Hokkaido Male in his 40s)

I run a restaurant, but the addition of smoked food to the new menu has increased the number of variations. In particular, smoked edamame, which is easy to make, has a good reputation among customers, and there are many repeat customers who say that the skin is delicious. Smoking does not fail, so I was able to find a good smoking material. (Sapporo City, Hokkaido Male in his 40s)

When I learned that it was a smoke material that made effective use of fallen trees from the Eastern Iburi Earthquake, I purchased it because I thought I could help with the reconstruction. We pray that the forest will be regenerated as soon as possible. (Tomakomai City, Hokkaido Female in her 60s)

I've been here ever since we met.

Since it is not sprayed with chemicals, we can use it with confidence. (Tottori Prefecture male in his 60s)

We run a poultry farm. When I was thinking about smoked eggs as a new product, I came across smoked eggs from Hokkaido. I will take care of you from now on. (Hokkaido male in his 60s)
