How We Can Serve Them:
Our goal is to provide tea merchants with experiences of exploration and discovery that they can pass on to their customers. We source a variety of teas from regions across Japan, from Kagoshima in the south to Saitama in the north. While sencha and hojicha are produced nationwide, we also offer region-specific teas such as kamairicha and tamaryokucha from Kyushu, Kyobancha from Kyoto, and withering sencha from Saitama. We provide samples of various teas from different regions. They then select their favorites from these samples. Additionally, for each tea, we offer tells a story of its origin, influenced by factors such as the region it comes from, the dedication of its producers, and the cultivar of the tea.
Places
Shizuoka, Kagoshima, and Kyoto are the well-known production areas for Japanese tea, but in reality, tea is grown in 37 of Japan's 47 prefectures, and variations can be enjoyed depending on factors such as climate, topography, and the producer's expertise. For example, in Shizuoka prefecture just for example, different flavors and aromas of tea are produced along the sea coast and in the mountains.
Tea Types
There are not only popular traditional tea types such as sencha and hojicha, but also rare types such as kamairi-cha, tamaryoku-cha and some new types that have been produced by skilled producers in recent years, such as withering sencha and lightly roasted hojicha, which have a new taste with a slightly different production process from the traditional method.
Cultivars
Currently, there are over 120 cultivars of Japanese tea! There are cultivars with a strong umami flavor, cultivars with a strong earthy profile, cultivars with a flowery aroma, and many other characteristics!
