Uji Tea holds a distinguished place in Japanese tea culture, originating from Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, the birthplace of green tea in Japan. To be designated as Uji Tea, it must be cultivated in Uji City or its surrounding regions, and then processed and finished by local businesses within Kyoto Prefecture.
Uji Matcha, made from this esteemed Uji Tea, is characterized by its profound sweetness and rich umami that follows an initial hint of astringency. It's incredibly versatile, perfect for your daily tea time, lattes, desserts, or even culinary applications.
