京都府·特産品
Wazuka Tea
On a misty morning, tea plantations spread across the mountain slopes—Wazuka Town is the largest production area for Kyoto's pride, Uji tea. Accounting for about 40% of the prefecture's tea production, its landscape, known as the 'Source of Tea,' brings peace to the soul just by looking at it. The history of tea making is ancient, with legends stating that a high priest of Kaijusan-ji Temple began cultivation about 800 years ago. During the Edo period, it became imperial land and was cherished as a village for high-quality tea leaves. The cold mist in the mountains slowly nurtures leaves rich in umami. With a single sip, a deep sweetness and full aroma unfold. Please experience the very origins of Kyoto's tea culture within your teacup.
