Ocha no Kanbayashi: four centuries of tradition in Uji

The Kanbayashi family, originally from a powerful clan in the Ayabe region, moved to Uji in 1558 (Eiroku era) and has since served both the imperial court and the shogunate, becoming official tea masters during the Edo period.

Today, led by Teruyo Kanbayashi-san, the company continues to honor the legacy of its ancestors, combining traditional and modern techniques to preserve the essence of tea, its taste, color, and aroma.

The Uji area, with its unique climate and terroir, is the ideal place for tea cultivation. Here, the monk Myōe began cultivating tea about 800 years ago, and since then Uji has become synonymous with the highest quality tea.

Ocha no Kanbayashi selects premium leaves from each field, highlighting the unique characteristics of each area, to create exceptional teas.

Additional information

Description

The silk of Uji

Matcha “Ayanoshiro” (綾の白) is a ceremonial matcha produced by the historic company Ocha no Kanbayashi from Uji (Kyoto). Its name, which means “white silk,” evokes the silky texture and luminous color that distinguish it.

This matcha offers a delicate, sweet, and umami flavor, with a light, fresh, and vegetal aroma, enriched by floral and nutty notes. Its soft foam and harmonious flavor make it enjoyable for any matcha lover.

The company pays great attention to the quality of the tea leaves: it sources the finest raw materials from small local farmers and grinds the tencha (shaded dried tea leaves) strictly with stone mills, to ensure a fine and smooth texture. Every sip is a unique sensory experience.
