About Ippodo
Ippodo's origins date back three centuries to the year 1717, when Rihei Watanabe established a shop called Omiya to sell tea and ceramics. In 1846, the shop was renamed Ippodo, which literally means “preserve one.” The name came from Prince Yamashina, who enjoyed Ippodo tea and wanted the shop to preserve one tradition: providing high quality tea. Ippodo continues to adapt as times change, but has remained devoted to high quality Japanese tea ever since.

<Notice regarding change of ingredients (updated August 2, 2024)>
Due to the earlier than expected end of this year's shipment of Miyazaki mangoes "Taiyo no Tamago," we regret to inform you that the origin of the fresh mangoes used in our menu will be changed. Starting from Friday, August 16, 2024, we will be using mangoes sourced from regions other than Miyazaki. We sincerely apologize to all our valued customers for any inconvenience caused and we appreciate your understanding regarding this unforeseen change.
*Please note that we will continue to use Miyazaki mangoes for menu items that include mango sauce or puree.
Thank you for your understanding.
