The sight of staff grinding sesame seeds with a pestle and mortar at the storefront catches the eyes of people walking along Nishiki-koji Street. The entrance to the shop is filled with the delicious aroma of freshly ground sesame seeds. "Sesame seeds are supposed to be ground by pounding rather than rubbing the pestle over them," they say. "A bitter taste is inevitably produced when sesame seeds are ground by rubbing." This store specializes in sesame, offering a variety of sesame snacks and seasonings, its signature product being the pestle-pounded golden sesame seeds.

Sesame is said to be effective for beauty and health. "Sesame Cubes," a sugar-free sesame sweet, and "Golden Sesame Onion Soup," which uses onions from Awaji Island, are popular at this store.

Golden sesame is characterized by its aromatic and almond-like flavor.
Sesame seeds are nice to have at home, as they go well with a variety of dishes.
