In Ōmori during the Edo period, there were three stores side by side along the Tōkai Highway that sold "Wachūsan," which was a powdered medicine considered to be effective against dizziness and colds. The head family of Wachūsan was in Ōmi Province, but the Wachūsan in Ōmori was "known to the world as Ōmori Wachūsan and extremely famous."
