Yamadashiya
- Ingredients & Seasonings
Whenever you pass by the shop, the aroma of hojicha (roasted tea), which the owner roasts day in and day out, invites you to come in. In Kyoto, hojicha is called “bancha.” The "ban" in "bancha" is the same as the "ban" in "obanzai" (home cooking), meaning "for daily use," so there is a theory that "bancha" was originally called as such because it was a tea commonly drunk in the home.
The shop is named "Yamadashiya," literally meaning "from out of the mountains," conveying the image of the factory beside the tea fields on the mountains bringing their produce to sell at Nishiki and processing the tea here. Their freshly prepared tea leaves that brew excellent tea can be purchased by weight.
