Ippodo 's origins date back three centuries, to 1717 , when Rihei Watanabe founded his first shop, called Omiya, near the Kyoto Imperial Palace , specializing in the sale of tea and ceramics. In 1846, the shop was renamed Ippodo, which literally means "preserving a tradition."

The name was given by Prince Yamashina , a great lover of Ippodo tea, who wished for the shop to perpetuate a single tradition: offering high-quality tea . Since then, Ippodo has adapted to the times while remaining true to its commitment to excellent Japanese tea.
