High quality taste achieved through traditional Ohishita cultivation Uji is close to the capital of Kyoto, and the natural climate is ideal for growing tea, with the deep mist of the Uji River protecting the tea from frost damage and softening the sunlight. During the Muromachi period, the Shogun of the time, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, encouraged the cultivation of Uji tea, and established the "Uji Shichimeien" tea gardens as official tea gardens for the Muromachi Shogunate, which increased Uji's fame and led to the great development of Uji as a tea-producing region throughout the country.

Unlike the manufacturing process of sencha, it is more expensive because it takes time to make, such as grinding it slowly in a mortar, but you can enjoy a unique depth that is not found in other teas.

Around the 16th century, the "Ohishita cultivation" method of tea plantation was invented. This Ohishita cultivation is a cultivation method in which the entire tea plantation is covered with straw or reed screen when the time for harvesting the new buds approaches, blocking out the sunlight for more than 20 days until the tea is picked. By blocking out the sunlight, the new buds grow softer, their color becomes more vivid, and they also store more theanine, which is the source of the tea's flavor. This revolutionary cultivation method, handed down since ancient
