Komakage is a rare tea cultivar nurtured in the Uji region of Kyoto. Its name, meaning “horse’s shadow,” comes from the legend recorded near the Komatei-en monument at Manpukuji Temple in Obaku, Uji. According to the story, the Buddhist monk Myōe, who helped spread
Uji tea, sowed tea seeds while riding a horse and instructed his followers to plant them along the tracks left by the horse’s hooves.
Komakage is known for its delicate, gentle taste, offering a refined and graceful flavor that embodies the distinctive elegance of Uji tea.
