About HIE NO REISUI
Hie is described in the Kojiki (Records of Ancient Matters) as “Hie no Yama”. It is called “Hie no reisui” because it gushes out of the historic Mt. Hie. This water is a rare ultra-soft water with a hardness of 19. In Japan, there are only a few products that meet the standard of ultra-soft water hardness 50.
It is gentle on the skin because it is soft and does not dry out after washing. Located on the continuation of Enryaku-ji Temple on Mt. Hiei, L’Hotel de Hiei uses Hie No Reiisui reincarnated water for all of its treatments and drinking water.
