許田の道の駅に行く前に　ヘリオス酒造の看板を見つけ　寄り道してみました。少し渋滞していたので、何気なく見つけた感じでしたが、泡盛の工場に興味があったので、途中からでしたが　参加させて頂けたので、話を聞きました。ヘリオスはギリシャ神話の太陽神の名前から取ったとのこと、、、また　米軍向けに　トウモロコシから　ラムを作ったのがヘリオス酒造の始まりだったこと、、、などなど　とても勉強になりました。泡盛はタ... more »

Find the Helios distillery sign at kyoda Road station, I stopped. So I enlist so casually found was slightly congested, so it seemed, but was interested in the awamori factory was on the way I heard the story. That took from the name of Greece mythology the Sun God Helios and the, also made a lamb from the corn for the American military was beginning of the Helios Distillery, etc became study very much. Awamori was soon making Thailand rice from what, so if you have time you take it. Surprised at the difference of awamori flavor at the end of course tasting, so that there's no doubt.

道の駅許田からも近いので那覇市内からも車で行きやすいかと思います。沖縄県にはたくさんの酒造がありますがヘリオスさんは次々にユニークな商品も発売している老舗です。工場見学をさせていただきました。広い敷地に歴史を感じる建物。行ってよかったです。 more »

I think so close to station road kyoda Naha city by car easy access to either. There are still plenty of Okinawa is Helios's long-established one after another and the sale unique products. We have a factory tour. Staff in the spacious grounds. It is good to go.

Very enjoyable. The staff is super friendly and the tasting and the tour was fun. You'll try some alcohol you may have not had before, and you'll also learn how they make awamori and what its difference is from sake or shoju.

We enjoyed this distillery. Unfortunately we did not get to take the tours. The tour times are 1030,130,300,430. The staff at the "gift" shop did speak English. We enjoyed the gift shop and will definitely go back to take a tour.

所要1時間30分程度。・45分　工場見学+ビデオ鑑賞インカム付きのスピーカーで説明してくれるので、聞き取りやすい。工場内部は撮影禁止。ショップ、外観、100年樽は撮影可。・20分　試飲ショップ内にある商品であればほとんど試飲可。成人で運転しない人であれば、ホントに気前よく何杯も出してくれる。・25分　お土産購入工場限定の無濾過の泡盛や、沖縄限定の「くら」の5年古酒ブレンドなど、限定品好きにもオススメ。

1 hour 30 minutes. -Explain in a 45-minute factory tour + videos with intercom speakers, so easy to hear. Internal plant is prohibited. Shop the look, 100 barrels are allowed to take this year. And products tasting shop in 20 minutes with you almost taste allowed. If people who don't drive in an adult, really generous spits out Cup after Cup. -25-"Sakura" unfiltered awamori souvenir purchase factory limited and Okinawa limited 5-year aged blend, limited edition love also recommended.
