WAKAYAMA ICHIBANBOSHI AWARD 1st Edition (FY 2025)
Grand Prize Winner

Kishu Umemadaiume
Iwatani Co., Ltd.

“Kishu Ume-Madai Ume” features flaked Kishu sea bream seasoned with sweet vinegar miso, delicately wrapped in Kishu Nanko ume. The gentle acidity of the ume harmonizes beautifully with the refined umami of the sea bream, creating a well-balanced flavor that can be enjoyed with rice, as ochazuke, or as an accompaniment to sake. It is a refined delicacy that brings together Wakayama’s mountain and sea flavors in a single bite—highly regarded as a premium gift item.

Deluxe Cake
Suzuya Co., Ltd.

The 'Deluxe Cake' made by Suzuya, cherished for nearly a century in Tanabe, Wakayama, consists of a moist, rich castella cake, homemade white bean jam, and is encased in white chocolate. This heirloom confection quietly embodies the passage of time and the memories of the local people. In the moment of unwrapping the silver foil, a subtle yet unmistakable luxury emerges.
