From the rich soil of Kyōtanabe comes this clear expression of Gokou's signature aroma and flavour, with a deep body and notes of fresh edamame. Located southwest of Uji City (宇治市), the fields and hills of Kyōtanabe (京田辺) are known for producing high quality tencha and gyokuro as some of the prime ingredients in Ujicha blends.
