Since we were in Uji for a day trip, we had to try our best to consume as much matcha as possible.
First was the matcha soft serve at Masuda (ますだ茶舗). It was rich, creamy, pleasantly bitter and one of the best matcha ice creams we’ve ever had.
Next was matcha parfait and hot freshly-whisked matcha at Tsujiri (辻󠄀利宇治本店). We had high expectations, given the famous brand name, but left disappointed.
Finally, we had hot matcha and gyokuro at Tsuen (通圓本店), the oldest teahouse in all of Japan. Both were delicious and a perfect way to end our day in the mecca of matcha.

Should absolutely be on the bucket list for any tea lover! The folks at r/tea might like this if you repost to their sub too.
