When tea seeds were introduced to Japan, they were first planted at Toganoo. These seeds were later spread in Uji, which became the site to produce the highest quality of tea leaf in Japan. </p><p>Uji has witnessed the diversification of green tea. Beginning from the high-grade matcha, which was only accessible by the nobles, Sencha was invented in the 18th century to fulfil the need of common people. The combination of these two tea production techniques produced gyokuro. The increasing popularity of Uji tea is deeply connected with the success of tea ceremonies, including <a href="/wiki/T%C5%8Dcha" title="Tōcha">Tōcha</a>, <a href="/wiki/Japanese_tea_ceremony" title="Japanese tea ceremony">Chanoyu</a> and <a href="/wiki/Senchad%C5%8D" title="Senchadō">Senchadō</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History_of_Uji_tea">History of Uji tea</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Uji_tea&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History of Uji tea"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="First_record_of_tea">First record of tea</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Uji_tea&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: First record of tea"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>During 804AD, a Japanese Buddhist monk named Kukai Hoken Hyu travelled to the Tang dynasty of China for two years. Upon return, he brought back books and calligraphy and began to propagate Buddhist teaching in Japanese society. Kukai had requested to present his discoveries to Emperor Saga. It was recorded that Emperor Saga was drinking chanoyu while reading through the books.
