The Kanbayashi Shunsho family is one of Uji’s most esteemed tea producers, carrying a legacy of more than fifteen generations dating back to the Eiroku era (around 1560). Today, the Kanbayashi Shunsho family remains the sole surviving lineage of Uji’s historic tea masters, upholding over 450 years of tradition. Their enduring commitment to craftsmanship and quality continues to define their celebrated approach to tea.

Carefully stored tea leaves are freshly ground to celebrate the start of the winter tea season in Japan. Presented in a gift wrapped box, this seasonal selection makes a thoughtful gift.

Includes:

• Chiyo no Kotobuki: 40g (golden tin)
• Wakamori no Shiro: 40g (white tin)

Chiyo no Kotobuki is a full bodied matcha that opens with smooth sweetness, develops into fresh vegetal notes and finishes with a pleasant bitterness. Its layered character makes it ideal for those who enjoy a bold, distinctive matcha flavour.

Wakamori no Shiro is smooth and mellow matcha, with a medium body and gentle woody and nutty notes reminiscent of roasted chestnuts. A light initial spiciness softens into a velvety finish without pronounced bitterness.
