Sencha Tea Bags
Farm: Tsuchiya Nouen
Region: Kawane, Shizuoka, Japan
Cultivar: Yabukita
Tasting Notes: Vegetal, fresh cut grass 

Sencha is a traditional Japanese green tea with needle-shaped leaves. The tea leaves are steamed and then hand-rolled to their iconic needle shape. The result is a balanced tea with a clean, refreshing taste. 

Hojicha Tea Bags
Farm: Tsuchiya Nouen
Region: Kawane, Shizuoka, Japan
Cultivar: Yabukita
Tasting Notes: Nutty, biscuit, savoury

Hojicha is a Japanese roasted tea with a distinctive warm flavour and toasty aroma. Our Hojicha is crafted using only first harvest tea. A light roast is applied to preserve the premium foundation, resulting in a tea with a savoury, biscuit-like aroma.

Gyokuro Tea Bags
Farm: Maiko no Cha Honpo
Region: Kyotanabe, Kyoto, Japan
Cultivar: Gokou
Tasting Notes: Marine, seaweed

Gyokuro is one of Japan’s finest green teas, prized for its deep flavour and full-bodied texture. Our Gyokuro is only harvested once a year after being shaded for 30 days. This labour-intensive cultivation method enhances its umami flavour.

FROM TSUCHIYA NOUEN

Sencha & Hojicha

From an award-winning farm in Kawane, Shizuoka's high altitude region. A single annual harvest allows tea plants to concentrate growth across full seasons. Refinement occurs in the farm's small, dedicated facility through methodical stages of withering, rolling, and firing. 

Following nature's call to honor the plant's pace, production remains deliberately limited. This belief permits meticulous attention to each stage of craft.

The farm follows Chagusaba, a traditional and protected practice of handcutting wild grasses and laying them as mulch between tea rows.

FROM MAIKO NO CHA HONPO

Gyokuro

From Kyotanabe, a respected tea growing region known for its award winning Gyokuro. With more than 200 years of history, the area is home to tea farmers who have refined their cultivation practices over generations.
