Koike Kashiho
Koike Kashiho puts Yanaizu’s wagashi culture into the low-cost, take-out end of serious Japanese sweets. Its Tabelog 100 selection for Japanese traditional sweets and sweets cafes in East Japan in 2023 gives the shop a credentialed place in a category where regional ingredients, temple-town habits, and everyday gifting matter more than dining-room ceremony.
