Yamato Tea
Yamato Tea is a renowned tea carefully nurtured in the mountains of Nara. Its history is incredibly ancient, dating back more than 1200 years. It is said to have begun when Kobo Daishi (Kukai) sowed tea seeds brought from Tang China at Butsurin-ji Temple in Uda. The high-altitude mountainous areas feature short hours of sunlight and significant temperature fluctuations between day and night. This harsh natural environment produces tea leaves with a profound flavor, balancing astringency and sweetness. When brewed slowly and carefully, a mellow umami and refreshing aroma unfold. It is a cup of pride for Nara, passed down for over a millennium. The depth that changes its character with every brew is a charm unique to Yamato Tea.
