The Rich Heritage of Green Tea

Wazuka town in southern Kyoto is best known for its legacy of producing the finest quality Uji green tea, a tradition spanning over 800 years. Taking advantage of favorable climatic and soil conditions, the tea plantations in the town form a beautiful landscape. Harvest tea leaves in the fields, grind them into powder, and enjoy a tea-tasting session or a tea-infused lunch amid the breathtaking scenery. This immersive experience will lead you through the rich tea culture deeply rooted in this area of Kyoto, from the art of cultivation to processing and many tea-infused products. This experience was curated in collaboration with the Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs and inspired by the Japan Heritage Story #009 “Japanese Tea: Eight Centuries of Tradition."
