What is Ippodo tea shop?
A Japanese tea specialty store founded in 1717. It started when the founder from Omi opened “Omiya” in Nijo Teramachi, which is located in the center of Kyoto. Omiya’s quality of tea has earned a good reputation, and about 170 years ago, Yamashina shrine received the titles of “Keep tea, keep one” and “Ippodo”. The Japanese tea we handle is “Kyomeicha”, which has a mild fragrance such as matcha, gyokuro, sencha, and bancha, an elegant sweetness, and a mellow taste. It is a long-established store in Kyoto that maintains the same quality and gains a high reputation nationwide.
