- Wakayama Ito-gun Koyacho Hana Saka 753-1
- "This venerable yakimochi (grilled rice cake) shop that has been in business for more than three centuries is located on National Route 480, which runs through the foothills of Mt. Koya. Their yakimochi are made with locally-grown glutinous rice and adzuki beans and have just the right amount of sweetness. The shop's plain and mugwort-flavored roasted rice cakes are also very popular as souvenirs. The first yakimochi is said to have been made by an old woman in 816, the same year that the monk Kukai first settled Mt. Koya. Her salt-flavored grilled rice cakes would quickly become famous as ""Hanasaka no yakimochi"" for their unique flavor. Hanasaka yakimochi would later be flavored with sugar starting in the Kamakura period. This shop carries on the more than 1,200 year-old tradition of Hanasaka yakimochi."
