The “Premium Deep Smoked Mixed Nuts” by HENRYM BAR MEALS CO., LTD. is a smoked nut mix offered in authentic bars across Ginza, Kita-Shinchi, and Nagoya. Developed with a focus on “snacks that pair well with alcohol,” the product was refined over a year of tasting and production adjustments with the collaboration of bars in Ginza. Instead of using the commonly utilized cherry wood for smoking, white oak barrels and peat, traditionally used for whiskey aging, were chosen to enhance the product’s compatibility with drinks. Upon opening, the unique, deep aroma is immediately noticeable. Originally created for professional use, the product packaging includes resealable bags with notches for easy opening, ideal for portioning in bar settings. It is now also available in smaller retail bags and sold at bars, liquor stores, and department stores. Founded in 2020, HENRYM BAR MEALS CO., LTD. was established by an owner with nearly 30 years of experience in the American machine tool industry, inspired by fond memories of unwinding at bars during business trips. Although the owner had enjoyed smoking foods as a hobby since his teens, he has since focused on developing smoked products tailored to alcohol, choosing nuts for their subtle flavor profiles that make quality differentiation challenging. To preserve the nuts’ natural flavor, they are smoked for over 7 hours at a low temperature below 25°C and then rested for over 3 hours. Special attention was given to the salt concentration and application method, achieving a balanced flavor. Leveraging his experience in the machine tool industry, the owner personally designed and built a custom smoke chamber with a smoke-free exhaust and ventilation system specifically for these nuts. The Premium Deep Smoked Mixed Nuts are especially recommended for fans of Islay whiskies, but they also make a delicious snack alongside beer or non-alcoholic drinks.
