Itohkyuemon, a long-established tea shop founded in 1832 (Tenpo 3), is located in Uji, one of Japan's leading producers of high-quality tea leaves. While preserving the traditions passed down since its founding, the shop continuously develops new matcha sweets, introducing new values of tea to the world.

At the main store tea room, you can enjoy a menu full of matcha delights made from high-quality tea leaves. The signature dish is the matcha parfait, brimming with matcha ice cream made from thick tea, and handmade matcha jelly. The "Itohkyuemon Parfait," a generous serving of matcha jelly, matcha ice cream, and black beans from Tanba, is a perennial favorite. In addition to the all-year-round parfaits, don’t miss the seasonal parfaits like the "Sakura Matcha Parfait" in spring and the "Momiji Matcha Parfait" in autumn. Not only sweets, but light meals such as the fragrant "Matcha Soba" with its beautiful jade color, and "Uji Matcha Curry Udon" are also popular.

Enjoy the matcha menu in a serene Japanese setting, filled with the pleasant aroma of tea.
