Research notes
Spelling variant flagged: a jb-store-jp.com listing found in search results was titled 'Jushou no Shiro Gion Tsujiri Matcha' (with an extra 'u') rather than 'Jusho no Shiro' as spelled on ujichamatcha.com and in the user's confirmed product list; this page returned a 404 when fetched directly so the discrepancy could not be resolved by reading its content, but the alternate romanization is worth noting for database matching purposes.
