JAL Hometown Support Team Kyoto Prefecture Representative Ikawa

I was born in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, and grew up there until I left my hometown to get a job. I currently work on domestic and international flights.
I love Kyoto so much that even after I started working, I would find time to go back there every month.

The Charm of Kyoto Prefecture

While Kyoto treasures its history and culture, it is also a place where you can discover new charms every time you visit. If you travel a little further from Kyoto city, you will find an abundance of beautiful nature.
Kyoto has been blessed with a rich food culture and has so many delicious things to choose from that it's hard to decide what to eat. It's difficult to sum up the charm of Kyoto in one word.

The local souvenirs chosen by the Kyoto Prefecture Hometown Support Team are...
"Namacha Jelly"

Uji, known as the town of tea, has many matcha shops, but among them, Nakamura Tokichi Honten is one that is surely known to all locals. The most popular souvenir from Nakamura Tokichi Honten is the "Namacha Jelly."
We have matcha, roasted green tea, and sometimes limited edition teas! You can feel the aroma and bitterness of the tea with its elegant sweetness, and the balance with the bean paste is addictive. Please try it once!

Available for purchase at Itami Airport and Nakamura Tokichi Uji Main Store (Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture)
