NaturaliTea is a private cooperative of farmers managed by the Kinezuka family, whose own tea fields produce over 20% of the cooperative's teas. Based in the hills of Fujieda, Shizuoka, the cooperative was established nearly 40 years ago by Toshiaki Kinezuka.

A Sannen (3-year) bancha organically grown in Sorayama, Obacho, Matsue City. There are two approaches of making sannen bancha and Chasandai's approach was to age the tea for three years. Through the aging process, the caffeine is naturally removed and creates a mellow and gentle taste. In general, sannenbancha contains many stems, but this one from Chasandai has many leaves and is finished with a delicious flavor. Please note that since there is almost no caffeine, children and the elderly can enjoy it with peace of mind.

A Sannen (3-year) bancha organically grown in Sorayama, Obacho, Matsue City. There are two approaches of making sannen bancha and Chasandai's approach was to age the tea for three years. Through the aging process, the caffeine is naturally removed and creates a mellow and gentle taste. In general, sannenbancha contains many stems, but this one from Chasandai has many leaves and is finished with a delicious flavor. Please note that since there is almost no caffeine, children and the elderly can enjoy it with peace of mind.

NaturaliTea is a private cooperative of farmers managed by the Kinezuka family, whose own tea fields produce over 20% of the cooperative's teas. Based in the hills of Fujieda, Shizuoka, the cooperative was established nearly 40 years ago by Toshiaki Kinezuka. Farmers in the cooperative develop techniques together to grow tea, rice, and vegetables without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers.
Kabusecha, sometimes called Kabuse Sencha, is a tea that is shaded for approximately two weeks. Shading the tea leaves cuts out the sunlight that reaches the plant and forces the plant to retain more L-theanine (creating the savory umami flavor), and reduces catechins (the antioxidant which produces astringency). This results in a balanced tea that is rich and savory.
\n
Kabusecha was most often used as a blender -- combined with sencha to increase the quality of a large volume of sencha, or with gyokuro (tea shaded for approximately 3 weeks) to increase the quantity of gyokuro. Recently, it is sold by itself as more farmers attempt to create unique products for the market.
\n
Tea farmer Shinichi Kihara inherited his farm from his father and follows an agricultural philosophy that prohibits the use of fertilizer and pesticides (synthetic, natural, organic or otherwise). This type of agricultural, called Shumei Natural Agriculture, aims to produce food that is as natural as possible. For this reason, the flavor profile attained will be different from other Kabusecha found on this site.

This results in a balanced tea that is rich and savory.
\n
Kabusecha was most often used as a blender -- combined with sencha to increase the quality of a large volume of sencha, or with gyokuro (tea shaded for approximately 3 weeks) to increase the quantity of gyokuro. Recently, it is sold by itself as more farmers attempt to create unique products for the market.
\n
Tea farmer Shinichi Kihara inherited his farm from his father and follows an agricultural philosophy that prohibits the use of fertilizer and pesticides (synthetic, natural, organic or otherwise). This type of agricultural, called Shumei Natural Agriculture, aims to produce food that is as natural as possible. For this reason, the flavor profile attained will be different from other Kabusecha found on this site.

The perfect coffee alternative, Kanazawa Daichi's soybean coffee powder uses 100% organic roasted soybean from Ishikawa Prefecture-based Kanazawa Agriculture (agricultural division of the same company). It is zero caffeine drinking and popular among pregnancy women or people who avoid caffeine drinking.
\n
Kinako is regular soybean powder commonly used in Japan for flavoring. This soybean coffee powder is different in that the stronger roasting gives the powder the flavor resembling coffee.
\n
How to Make Soybean Coffee
\n
\n
Put 4 grams (3 tsp) into 200 ml of boiled water and mix well.
\n
Drinking with soy milk or honey, sugar are also recommended.

Farmer Info
\n
Yoshimitsu Masuda spent the first part of his adult life working in a major farming cooperative where he learned firsthand about the danger of food additives and pesticides. Returning to the family tea farm in 1992 to learn tea making from his father and fellow tea farmers in Shimada, Shizuoka, he was deeply surprised at the amount of pesticides used in tea farming.
\n
Switching to organic farming was not an easy task; insects and disease plagued the first field he was given charge of, crop yield and leaf quality dropped, and he faced criticism from both family and other tea professionals. But he felt it was important to create tea that was safe for his own family to drink first. (Read more about Masuda-san's story here.)
\n
Today, built upon 25+ years of organic farming experience, Masuda-san produces tea that he is proud to call both safe and delicious and is passing his tea-making skills on to his children.
