Ippodo Tea
Teramachi-Nijo, Kyoto, Japan
What Ippodo Tea is known for
Ippodo has sold tea from its shopfront near Kyoto's Imperial Palace since 1717, blending sencha, gyokuro, and matcha in-house before each order ships. The Kyoto Main Store still runs a tasting counter where customers can sample teas before buying, a service the company has offered for generations.
Best for — gyokuro, sencha, and matcha with in-store tastings
