Description
Tsujirihei Honten · Est. 1860 · Traditionally Shaded · Floral & Graceful · Maison Koko Exclusive · First Release Outside Japan Description 千代昔 — Chiyo Mukashi. In Japanese, chiyo (千代) means a thousand generations, a phrase used for centuries to honour what has been passed down and carried forward. Mukashi (昔) is a traditional designation in tea naming, marking this as koicha-grade tea, made the old way, exactly as it always has been. Together, the name is a quiet tribute to continuity itself. Chiyo Mukashi captures the refined essence of Kyoto's thousand-year-old tea culture. Crafted from Ujihikari and Samidori , it opens with delicate floral aromas before leading into a silky texture and gentle umami that unfold gracefully, not arriving all at once, but emerging in sequence, like chapters in a long and careful story. Producer Tsujirihei Honten Est. 1860, Uji, Kyoto Cultivars Ujihikari & Samidori Uji, Kyoto heritage cultivars Availability Rare & limited First release outside Japan The elegant Tsujirihei Honten tin is part of what makes this matcha a gift in itself, a piece of Uji craftsmanship to keep long after the last spoonful.
