Kyoto Kanbayashi Harumatsu main store. A tea garden in Uji was opened in the early 13th century by Koben Myoe, a monk from Tsugao Kozanji Temple (present-day Ukyo Ward, Kyoto City). Its history has been supported by the blessed natural conditions, the passion of the tea masters, and the support of the shogunate. The Kanbayashi family has enjoyed the generous patronage of the Shogun family since the late 14th century, when Yoshimitsu, the third Ashikaga shogun, opened a tea garden called Uji Shichimeien and spread the fame of Uji tea throughout the country, and flourished as a powerful tea master. However, in the late 16th century, the Muromachi shogunate fell due to a war with Oda Nobunaga. The Uji tea industry, which was deeply connected to the Shogun family, also suffered great damage. Afterwards, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who loved tea and spread the tea ceremony among the people, focused his efforts on the restoration of Uji, and the Uji tea industry entered a new era. The first generation of Kanbayashi Shunshoken, which continued to strive to meet Toyotako's expectations, established its residence in Nishi 1-cho, Ujibashi (currently Uji-Kamibayashi Memorial Hall). During the Tokugawa era, the tea ceremony became more and more popular, and Shogun Ieyasu appointed the Kanbayashi family as Uji magistrate and tea president. The Kanbayashi family went so far as to take full control of Uji tea. From the “Kamibayashi Harumatsu Main Store” homepage
