Story & Recommendation
Enjoy matcha sweets that epitomize Kyoto at Itohkyuemon Uji Main Branch’s café
Itohkyuemon is one of the most famous tea shops in Kyoto. For foreign tourists, the most famous products is Matcha and Hojicha Kit Kats collaborated by Itohkyuemon which is limited Kyoto. Their Uji main branch is always bustling with customers, most of them tourists, and its location is a 5-minute walk from both Keihan Mimurodo and Uji stations, and it’s also a 12-minute walk away from JR Nara line Uji Station. You can enjoy the high quality Matcha desserts at only Itohkyuemon which has long history.
The luxurious experience of enjoying matcha desserts in a café filled with the fragrant smell of matcha is something you can only have in Kyoto. I hope you will enjoy authentic matcha desserts at Itohkyuemon Uji Main Branch’s café, which is the first café to get Uji City’s official matcha café certification.
