About This Tea

Shizuoka Prefecture produces over 40% of all Japanese tea, and for good reason. Nestled between the Southern Alps and Suruga Bay, with Mt. Fuji watching over its slopes, Shizuoka's climate — warm days, cool nights and abundant rainfall — creates ideal conditions for growing Sencha of outstanding quality. Our Premium Sencha is carefully steamed, rolled and dried to lock in its fresh flavour and vivid green colour.

The Origin Story

Grown by Farmer Shizuoka,
Nihondaira hills

This gyokuro comes from the Nihondaira hills in Shizuoka. Fog rolls off the coast in the morning and sits over the tea rows until the sun burns it off. Harvest is in early May. For the last 21 days before picking, the plants are kept under cover. No sun. The leaves respond by producing more chlorophyll and theanine, which is where the deep green and the umami come from. The farm has been doing it this way for generations.
