<< The images on the left show that in some ways, not much has changed with Japan's oldest continually operating tea shop, located at the same location on the east side of the Uji Bridge, in Uji Japan near Kyoto.

Through 24 generations, and for over 846 years on this very spot, the Tsuen family sold and served green tea to the many travelers, monks, samurai, and shoguns, and now tourists that cross this important bridge between Kyoto and Nara.  In cooperation with the Tsuen family, it is O-Cha.com's privilege to offer our customers a select number of items from their diverse lineup of green tea products.
