Ito Kuemon, a long-established tea shop founded in the late Edo period, will sell "Ume no Matcha Parfait" (1,390 yen) for about two weeks from February 14, 2025 (Friday) at three stores: Uji Main Store, JR Uji Ekimae Store, and Gion Shijo Store.

Harmony of matcha x plum

In addition to Japanese ingredients such as matcha jelly and matcha ice cream, "Plum Matcha Parfait" uses plum jelly, plum bean paste, and plum puree, so you can fully enjoy the flavor of plums. The topping is decorated with plum sweets wrapped in matcha bean paste, and the refreshing acidity and deep taste of matcha are harmonious.

The rich flavor of Chengju white plum

For plum jelly and plum puree, we use "Joshu Haku" grown in Joyo City, Kyoto Prefecture. It is a plum with thick flesh and a mellow aroma, and provides a new taste experience in combination with matcha.

The selling price is 1,390 yen, and the tea set is 1,790 yen. The service is limited to three stores: the Uji Main Store, the JR Uji Station Store, and the Gion Shijo Store.
