Producers have been diligently cultivating them for a year, but the supply and demand are in an unbalanced situation. That's why I think it's the job of a tea shop to cherish the tea harvested that year and sell it as a good product. It is important to respond to the needs of customers as the times change, but while firmly maintaining the axis of Gion Tsujiri, we are delivering the charm of tea, which is the ultimate health food and a treasure trove of vitamins, to young people. I would like to come. We also believe that it is our mission as a tea shop to send out information that will reconsider the culture of brewing and tasting tea yourself. In the renewal of the Gion Main Store, we have put a lot of creativity and ingenuity into every corner of the store, hoping that it will be an opportunity for people of a generation who were not familiar with tea to get interested in it and start a life with tea. Although it is difficult to travel to other prefectures due to the corona crisis, all of our employees are sincerely looking forward to seeing many customers.
