About the Aritst

The aroma of this tea that is in a bag is faint but distinct

making this tea extra delicate

Steamed and dried without rolling

a generous amount of matcha is blended with the delicious Koshi-hikari (rice cultivar) brown rice from Niigata and green tea from Shizuoka prefecture that has been aged in Seikoen's natural snow-cooled warehoused called a "Yukimuro" to increase its flavor

but remains a very peaceful day trip compared to the main areas of Kyoto like Gion
