Uji Kyoto, Heritage and Quality
Commitment to
Uji
The history of Uji tea dates back to the Kamakura period (1185–1333). Through the Muromachi and Edo periods(1336-1868), it spread across Japan, establishing Uji as the premier region for the finest Tencha (the raw material for Matcha) and Gyokuro.
Commitment to
Craftsmanship
We carefully select tea leaves from the renowned tea gardens of Uji. Through our integrated production process in our own factory, we stay true to traditional methods, such as stone grinding, to deliver high-quality tea with a rich aroma.
Commitment to
Quality
Tea has long been known for its ability to relax the mind. Driven by the desire to share the goodness and flavor of tea with more people, we are dedicated not only to providing exceptional tea but also to developing products that use the finest matcha.
