The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.
\n
Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their familyâs legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021).Â
The women of Kiroku Tea Garden began experimenting with a unique roasting of their tencha tea leaves a few years ago (in cooperation with their roasting partner in Wazuka Village), and created this unique roastâa deep, double-roasting of their single cultivar okumidori spring tencha leaves that creates a sweetness in the tea when steeped.
\n
Tencha is the green tea leaf used to make matcha, and okumidori cultivar spring tencha is highly sought after for matcha. Most farmers would think it a waste to roast these leaves, but in the pursuit of innovation in tea, the Hori family sets aside a small amount each year for creating this sweet roast.

\n\n
Unique to the city of Kyoto from which it gets name, Kyobancha is harvested from tea leaves and twigs that have matured over the winter months and then roasted producing a very woodsy flavor. As bancha, it is unrolled, so we sell it in larger 200 gram bags.
\n
Often called 'bancha for babies' (akachan bancha 赤ちゃん番茶) because it has almost no caffeine, it is also called 'spring bancha' (haru bancha 春番茶) because it is harvested in March from winter matured leaves. Rarely offered outside of Japan, it is even quite rare to find it in supermarkets in Japan as well.
\n
Akky's Kyobancha has resulted in a tea that produces a light, refreshing, and easy-to-drink taste--a healthy alternative to sugary drinks. We recommend steeping it in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, or steeping it with cold water for 2-3 hours for iced tea.
\n
Video illustrating how kyobancha, the winter-grown roasted tea, is made and prepared.
\nCultivation: Leaves and stems that have matured over the winter, cut to prepare the field for the spring harvest
\n
\nProduction notes: Steamed and dried without rolling, then roasted
\n
\nTasting Notes: Extremely low in caffeine, light body

Konacha is made of tea buds, dust, and small leaves that are filtered during tea processing. It has a strong flavor and an intense green color. Another name is 'sushi-tea (sushi-cha)' because it has been served in sushi restaurants. This easy-to-make, thick green konacha was convenient for quick preparation. Usually, a bamboo strainer is used.

Konacha is made of tea buds, dust, and small leaves that are filtered during tea processing. It has a strong flavor and an intense green color. Another name is 'sushi-tea (sushi-cha)' because it has been served in sushi restaurants. This easy-to-make, thick green konacha was convenient for quick preparation. Usually, a bamboo strainer is used.
\n
Farmer Takeo-san's konacha is made by tea leaves taken only from the ichiban-cha (first harvest tea).

Roasted Tencha Stems, in Japanese: Tenbone Houjicha(てん骨ほうじ茶) is made from the branch stems of tencha (てん茶) while the leaf stems and veins are roasted into Obubu's Tsugumi Hojicha. Tencha are the unrolled tea leaves used to make matcha tea powder. Because you drink the entire leaf when you drink matcha, the leaves used for matcha tea powder need to be as sweet as possible. So when Tencha is created, Akky covers the tea plants for up to four weeks to reduce the amount of catechin (which creates bitterness) as much as possible.
\n
In the process of making matcha, the dried, unrolled tencha tea leaves are then separated into two groups, soft and tough parts. The tough parts are the stems and veins and they are called tenbone (tencha no hone, the bones of tencha).
\n
Akky has taken these bones of the tencha and lightly roasted them to produce a mild yet luxurious flavor. Enjoy the elegance of Tenbone Houjicha and all its sweetness and aroma!

Mimasaka Bancha is a tea that is known to have been loved by Miyamoto Musashi, a famous swordsman in the early Edo Period.
It is made by using the tea leaves and stems harvested from mid July - mid August. Leaves and stems are boiled in an iron pan. Boiled tea leaves are spread out onto a straw mat. Cooked water used for boiling the tea is sprinkled onto the tea leaves as it is dried under the sunlight, and this is repeated two or three times. As a result of tea incrustation from the water sprinkled onto the tea, color of the dried tea leaves become amber.
\n
STEEPING NOTES
\n
Because Mimasaka Bancha is slightly fermented, it must be brewed in boiling water for 7-8 minutes to fully enjoy the tea. By pouring boiling water to the tea leaves will extract only the sour flavor contained in the tea.
\n
Several customers have recommended brewing the leaves to a thicker, stronger extract, so here is our current recommendation:
\n
Tea: 5 grams. Time: 8 minutes. Water: About 2 cups or 300-350 ml. Place leaves in boiling water and brew for 8 minutes.
Bancha Specialty Shop Furyu was established in 2010 by aspiring tea master Nobuhiko Ikematsu, who works directly with farmers in Kurume City, Fukuoka, to develop delicious bancha teas. He is also a specialist gathering rare bancha teas from around Japan.

Using Japan-grown toasted rice from Shizuoka Prefecture and May-harvested spring ichibancha, this organic genmaicha from the Kinezuka family is a bit of luxury for a reasonable price. One is sure to be pleased with the well-balanced roastiness of the rice (don't forget to enjoy the toasty aroma!) along with the fresh and grassy flavor from the green tea. Rich in Vitamin B1 as well, we recommend NaturaliTea's Genmaicha for those with active lifestyles. Because of the accessibility of genmaicha, this tea is also a perfect gift for someone who is just getting into Japanese tea.
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.

Made with a little bit of luxury, Obubu's Genmaicha (玄米茶) or Brown Rice Tea is made with 100% Japanese-grown sweet mochi rice combined with our Yanagi Bancha. The strong, sweet flavor of the roasted brown fills the air as the tea steeps and mixes with the sweetness and bitterness of the sencha to produce a delicious and natural tea.
\n
Approximate Ratio: 55% green tea, 45% toasted rice.
Multiple levels of roasting, multiple base tea leaves, and each delicious to the last drop.
\n
Feel free to re-steep cup after cup after cup...
\n\n
Roasted green tea, or Houjicha (or hojicha ほうじ茶 / 焙じ茶), has a smooth, slightly smoky flavor that is simultaneously light and sweet, hojicha has none of the bitterness of traditional green teas. And like decaf coffee, the roasting process removes much of the caffeine from the leaves making it the perfect after dinner / before bed drink.
\n
Obubu offers many different types of hojicha using various roasting methods and base leaves.
\n
Note: Package design may change from time to time
\n
Recommended steeping parameters: 5g / 60 sec / 200 ml / 90C or 194F degrees / soft water. Resteep 4 times for 800 ml.

\n
About a month after harvesting the leaves to make our premium Kabuse Sencha or shaded tea, we do a second cropping of the same plants in June to produce our Yanagi Bancha or やなぎ番茶 leaves. Bancha is usually classified as the lowest grade tea leaves, and this allows us to offer you something a bit better.
\n
By June, the leaves have matured, and we do a deep cropping to increase volume as well as to get slender pieces of twigs (which contain sugars that offset the bitterness of the more mature leaves). Low in caffeine, this tea is great for drinking regularly throughout the day and before bed.
\n
The Kabuse Sencha field where Yanagi Bancha is also harvested.
Bancha is a term that has differing meanings in different parts of Japan. Most people outside of Japan think of it as autumn harvested coarse leaves. In actuality, this is the definition from the Eastern Japan (Tokyo) where bancha refers to akibancha (autumn harvested bancha 秋番茶). In the Western Japan (where Kyoto is located), bancha is actually a kind of roasted tea (Houjicha ) made from leaves beneath the leaves of the first flush harvest. We let them grow a bit more and harvest them in June. Before it is roasted to create bancha, it is called Yanagi Bancha, or the product you are buying right now.

Grown and processed by the Shimizu family of Suizawa, Mie Prefecture.
\n
Konacha itself is made up of the smallest, broken bits of tea leaves (not quite powder) left over after processing (see photo). Because of the small size, it steeps very quickly. Konacha is a tea that can be mixed with hot or cold water as instant tea. You can ingest the entire nutrition of tea leaves. It is also well-suited for cooking and making sweets.

Grown and processed by the Shimizu family of Suizawa, Mie Prefecture.
\n
Konacha itself is made up of the smallest, broken bits of tea leaves (not quite powder) left over after processing (see photo). Because of the small size, it steeps very quickly. Konacha is a tea that can be mixed with hot or cold water as instant tea. You can ingest the entire nutrition of tea leaves. It is also well-suited for cooking and making sweets.

A blended leaf stem tea (kukicha) grown and processed by the Shimizu family of Suizawa, Mie Prefecture. The refreshingness and sweetness of this tea may pleasantly surprise you, and overall, it is a well-balanced tea that can be enjoyed over multiple steeps (one to share with family and friends).

Because it is a premium kukicha, it is given the more refined name of karigane, literally the \"sound of geese\". Karigane is mainly a term that is utilised in the Kyoto/Southern areas of Japan and the term evokes the elegance of Japanese geese carrying a twig as it migrates across the Sea of Japan. When it tires, it places the twig in the water and rests on it... (very poetic!) or so the legend goes.
\n
If you are not too familiar with kukicha, one may wonder why people drink tea made from stalks instead of regular leaf tea. It is because the stalks of green tea are also rich in nutrients, contain umami flavor, and have a pleasant aroma and flavor. In fact, stalks and stems receive less sunlight compared to leaves which result in less production of catechins and more sweet notes (umami) in brewed tea.

Unrefined tencha (碾茶) tea leaves (the raw material used for matcha) is roasted to create a light-bodied roasted green tea. Tencha differs from other Japanese green teas in that it is shaded for about 4 weeks before harvest and is not rolled during processing; after steaming it is dried in a special tencha oven.
The Azuma family specializes in growing tencha, the leaves used for creating matcha, in addition to other types of green, black, and oolong teas. In the process of certifying tea fields as organic, they are shifting cultivation of their fields to pesticide free practices.
\n
Based in Wazuka, Kyoto, Japan, the family has also recently built their own matcha grinding factory becoming fully vertically integrated as a producer.

In refining his shincha tea leaf harvest, tea farmer Tomizawa-san removes the stems of the leaves. These stems are gathered up to create shira-ore, called kukicha in other parts of Japan, or leaf stem tea. The stems have an relatively more sweet flavors and less astringency than the leaf itself and make great iced teas.
\n
While this is an early May harvest, we are planning to procure this in June to spread out management of incoming teas.

Awa Bancha or awabancha from the village of Kamikatsu, Tokushima Prefecture, is a regional folk tea, and this micro batch has been made by the Mima family for over a century. Michiko and her daughter Yoshimi (see photo) continue their family tradition by producing just a few dozen kilograms every year. Their activity helps to preserve a centuries old tradition that developed largely independent of Japan's main tea industry centered in Kyoto.
\n
note: the pricing incorporates extra shipping fees due to the bulkiness of this tea
\n
Awa bancha, a fermented tea tradition
\n
Awa Bancha is made from large, mature leaves harvested in the hot and humid summer time. In this region, harvesting is often done with help from one's neighbours and locals from children to the elderly. It can be quite hot but a very fruitful time to gather and harvest together.
\n\n
The tea leaves are picked by hand. This is the very beginning of traditional awabandcha making.
\n
After sorting the tea leaves, they are boiled in a large pot for about 2 to 3 minutes, and then softened using a rolling machine.
\n
The tea is then packed into large barrels, covered with Basho leaves, and weighed down with 100kg of weight to allow lactic acid fermentation (like turning milk into yogurt).
\n
After 3-4 weeks, the leaves are removed from the barrels, they are then sun-dried for a day.
\n\n
Awa bancha has a slightly sour taste, and we recommend steeping about 5 grams worth of tea in boiling water for 3-5 minutes depending on how strong you like it.
\n
While bancha refers to the fact that these leaves are harvested late (in this case using the character for late 晩), the awa 阿波 is the old feudal province name for the region now called Tokushima Prefecture.

Awa Bancha or awabancha from the village of Kamikatsu, Tokushima Prefecture, is a regional folk tea, and this micro batch has been made by the Mima family for over a century. Michiko and her daughter Yoshimi (see photo) continue their family tradition by producing just a few dozen kilograms every year. Their activity helps to preserve a centuries old tradition that developed largely independent of Japan's main tea industry centered in Kyoto.

\n
Awa bancha, a fermented tea tradition
\n
Awa Bancha is made from large, mature leaves harvested in the hot and humid summer time. In this region, harvesting is often done with help from one's neighbours and locals from children to the elderly. It can be quite hot but a very fruitful time to gather and harvest together.
\n\n
The tea leaves are picked by hand. This is the very beginning of traditional awabandcha making.
\n
After sorting the tea leaves, they are boiled in a large pot for about 2 to 3 minutes, and then softened using a rolling machine.
\n
The tea is then packed into large barrels, covered with Basho leaves, and weighed down with 100kg of weight to allow lactic acid fermentation (like turning milk into yogurt).
\n
After 3-4 weeks, the leaves are removed from the barrels, they are then sun-dried for a day.
\n\n
Awa bancha has a slightly sour taste, and we recommend steeping about 5 grams worth of tea in boiling water for 3-5 minutes depending on how strong you like it.
\n
While bancha refers to the fact that these leaves are harvested late (in this case using the character for late 晩), the awa 阿波 is the old feudal province name for the region now called Tokushima Prefecture.

The Miyazaki Sabou Tea Garden, operated by the Miyazaki family, specializes in a variety of single cultivar teas which they process into pan-roasted green tea (kamairicha), oolong tea, and black tea. They have been farming without pesticides since 1983. This standard kamairicha green tea (MY07) is a blend coming from Miyazaki-san, a selection from their individual lots using zairai (non-cultivar) and yabukita leaves. The zairai is Miyazaki Sabou Tea Garden's oldest tea field.
\n
What is a kamairicha? Kamairicha is green tea which is made by heating the leaves in a pan instead of the typical steaming process that senchas go through. It is the common method of producing Chinese green tea, but is quite rare today in Japan. Rather than producing the typical round pellet shape associated with gunpowder tea, the Japanese method gives the shape of a comma (i.e., the punctuation mark).In general, kamairicha is a traditional folk tea from Southern Japan and Miyazaki prefecture is known as the best prefecture for this type of tea! Kamairichas can be a nice change from the senchas one may be used to with the pleasant scent of roasted chestnuts.

What is a kamairicha? Kamairicha is green tea which is made by heating the leaves in a pan instead of the typical steaming process that senchas go through. It is the common method of producing Chinese green tea, but is quite rare today in Japan. Rather than producing the typical round pellet shape associated with gunpowder tea, the Japanese method gives the shape of a comma (i.e., the punctuation mark).In general, kamairicha is a traditional folk tea from Southern Japan and Miyazaki prefecture is known as the best prefecture for this type of tea! Kamairichas can be a nice change from the senchas one may be used to with the pleasant scent of roasted chestnuts.

Botebotecha is a traditional way of making tea by whisking brewed bancha tea leaves, wild chrysanthemum flowers, and sometimes other ingredients (okowa, boiled beans, rice mixed with red beans (sekihan), shredded kouya tofu and pickels) practiced in Matsue City, the capital of Shimane Prefecture. The tea flowers are said to contain sopamine and that helps create a large amount of foam.
\n
This base provided by Shimane based Ocha no Sankoen is made with a roasted bancha blended with tea flowers.
\n
Historically, it is said that the tea master and daimyo lord Harusato Matsudaira (1751-1818, known by his tea name Fumai) would make this as a snack when he went hawking. During a time of famine, Matsudaira told people to eat their scare food in this way to extend their rations. The name \"botebotecha\" comes from the sound of whisking vigorously.
\n
Instructions: If you can get all the ingredients necessary to make this traditional folk tea, we have the tea itself for you here. Boil the bancha / tea flower mix in a kettle, and then allow to cool. Whisk it (very hard) with a bit of salt at the edges of the whisk until you get a bubble bath level of foam. Then you are supposed to mix the food into the tea, and let it settle so you can pour it into your mouth.
We will be exploring our own steeping methods with this tea since the traditional way of drinking may be difficult for most people.
\n\n
Place the tea into a kettle with water and bring to a boil.
\n
After it cools, pour into a bowl.
\n
Use a long chasen (bamboo whisk) with the tips dipped in salt, and whisk vigorously until it foams.

Kajihara Tea Garden’s best selling tea, \"Densho\" (meaning \"tradition\" in Japanese). This original kamairicha is produced from 60-year old tea bushes grown from seed (zairai) and then blended with okuyataka and yabukita cultivar tea leaves.
\n
Because the main zairai tea bushes are located on a steep slope (at least 30 degrees), the tea is made with a lot of care and effort. Yes, the tea work on this farm can even be dangerous at times! Made through the traditional kamairicha producing method, this tea has a relatively strong scent but is refreshing to drink.
\n
Kamairicha (literally pan-fired tea) is a type of tea processing method that was brought from China in the 15th-16th century. Instead of steaming the leaf to stop oxidization, a processor will instead lightly heat the leaf in a pan to stop oxidization. It is then rolled while drying. Kamairicha products are mostly made in the Kyushu region.

Steeping Recommendation from Kajihara-san
\n
\n
\nTea: 3 grams \n
\n
\nTime: 60-90 sec (10-15 sec, on 2nd; 30-60 sec on 3rd steeping)
\n
\nWater: 80C/176F, 200 ml
\n
\nNotes: To steep kamairicha, it is best to steep in a higher temperature of about 80 degrees Celsius. This will ensure producing the richness of kamairicha. In general, teas give out \"umami\" with lower temperatures and scent and \"shibumi\" (astringency) can be achieved through higher temperatures. Kajihara-san suggests experimenting day-to-day depending on your state of being (mood, health, etc). \n
\nLocation: Ashikita, Ashikita-gun, Kumamoto 869-6303, Japan
\n
\n
The Kajihara Tea Garden is cultivated by Toshihiro Kajihara, a 3rd generation tea farmer based in the 9-family hamlet of Tsuge in Ashikita Village, Kumamoto.

Kajihara Tea Garden’s best selling tea, \"Densho\" (meaning \"tradition\" in Japanese). This original kamairicha is produced from 60-year old tea bushes grown from seed (zairai) and then blended with okuyataka and yabukita cultivar tea leaves.
\n
Because the main zairai tea bushes are located on a steep slope (at least 30 degrees), the tea is made with a lot of care and effort. Yes, the tea work on this farm can even be dangerous at times! Made through the traditional kamairicha producing method, this tea has a relatively strong scent but is refreshing to drink.
\n
Kamairicha (literally pan-fired tea) is a type of tea processing method that was brought from China in the 15th-16th century. Instead of steaming the leaf to stop oxidization, a processor will instead lightly heat the leaf in a pan to stop oxidization. It is then rolled while drying. Kamairicha products are mostly made in the Kyushu region.

Steeping Recommendation from Kajihara-san
\n
\n
\nTea: 3 grams \n
\n
\nTime: 60-90 sec (10-15 sec, on 2nd; 30-60 sec on 3rd steeping)
\n
\nWater: 80C/176F, 200 ml
\n
\nNotes: To steep kamairicha, it is best to steep in a higher temperature of about 80 degrees Celsius. This will ensure producing the richness of kamairicha. In general, teas give out \"umami\" with lower temperatures and scent and \"shibumi\" (astringency) can be achieved through higher temperatures. Kajihara-san suggests experimenting day-to-day depending on your state of being (mood, health, etc). \n
\nLocation: Ashikita, Ashikita-gun, Kumamoto 869-6303, Japan
\n
\n

About the Tea Farmer \n
\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.

\n
Oxidization in the leaves are then stopped using the pan-fired (kamairi) method of processing, the leaves are rolled, dried in a greenhouse under the sunlight. And finally, the tea is roasted.
\n
This tea processing method is a folk tea called Kumano Bancha 熊野晩茶 in the Kumano region of Wakayama Prefecture, which Mitocha is attempting to preserve.. It was used to make rice porridge to be eaten with pickled vegetables and dried foods, and drunk as an every day tea. It also ages well according to the Mitocha.

This superior hojicha from the NaturaliTea cooperative in Fujieda, Shizuoka was made by carefully roasting ichibancha (first harvest) leaves in May at a high temperature. Compared to hojicha that is made from summer or autumn leaves, this hojicha can be characterised as mild, with a rich and elegant flavor. The aroma when you open the bag is a delicious chocolate.
\n
Please indulge in the mellow aftertaste filled with rich toasty sweetness. To bring out the roasty aroma, please steep at a higher temperature.

New tea farmer Yancy Lever revived abandoned yabukita tea fields that had been growing wildly for a couple of years, and began harvesting them from the year 2019 under the direction of a veteran farmer. Processing occurs at his teacher's factory, and he is learning to process tea as well.
\n
This hojicha is slowly hand-roasted by Yancy in small 5-6kg batches as an ultra light roast with fruity notes. Yancy'shojicha is unique because he roasts it on a rotisserie (called baisenki, in Japanese) over charcoal that he made himself. When we interviewed Yancy, he let us know that he turns the rotisserie by hand, and he does it all by feel. This is a delicious light roasted hojicha that can be enjoyed by all.

Yancy Lever is an American farming tea, yuzu citrus, soba (buckwheat) and other vegetables in the beautiful mountains of Otoyo Village, Kochi, and neighboring Aruse Village, Tokushima, Japan. He began tea farming just 2 years ago, after falling in love with and marrying his wife Azusa who is from Otoyo Village.
\n
Otoyo Village is more well known for its goishicha tea, but the same tea fields also produce sencha, so Yancy is starting his journey as a tea farmer with Japan's standard tea.

New tea farmer Yancy Lever revived abandoned yabukita tea fields that had been growing wildly for a couple of years, and began harvesting them from the year 2019 under the direction of a veteran farmer. Processing occurs at his teacher's factory, and he is learning to process tea as well.
\n
This hojicha is slowly hand-roasted by Yancy in small 5-6kg batches as an ultra light roast with fruity notes. Yancy'shojicha is unique because he roasts it on a rotisserie (called baisenki, in Japanese) over charcoal that he made himself. When we interviewed Yancy, he let us know that he turns the rotisserie by hand, and he does it all by feel. This is a delicious light roasted hojicha that can be enjoyed by all.

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.

Founder Noboru Furuichi began the business by selling tea from his bicycle just after the end of World War II in 1948. At the time there were few tea finishing factories, and Noboru Furuichi wanted tea created better, so made the decision to create his own factory.

JAS certified organic sencha from Chiran Village, Kagoshima Prefecture.
\n
Product Info
\n
\n
\nIngredients: green tea \n
\n
\nHarvest: Spring.
\n
\nRegion: Chiran Village, Kagoshima
\n
\nSteaming: Regular to deep steaming (not quite fukamushi as the leaves remain fairly in tact, but produces a deep green color).
Founder Noboru Furuichi began the business by selling tea from his bicycle just after the end of World War II in 1948. At the time there were few tea finishing factories, and Noboru Furuichi wanted tea created better, so made the decision to create his own factory. The family business was incorporated in 1992, and President Shoji Furuichi continues his father's legacy in providing the best Japanese tea from Chiran Village, Kagoshima.
Perhaps you are familiar with a hojicha but exactly is a kuki hojicha? Akukicha (“twig tea”), or stem tea, is made with parts of the tea plant that is usually not used for making the most common type of green tea such as sencha. So, this tea from Yokota Tea Garden is a roasted stem tea, and specifically with stems/stalks coming from their summer harvest in Sayama, Saitama prefecture. Lightly smoky and earthy in flavor, and low in caffeine due to the summer harvest and roasting process. Many of our customers have also commented on the gentle sweetness and nuttiness of this kuki hojicha so if you prefer your hojichas to have a subtle sweetness, this one may be for you!

A delicious discovery, an easy introduction to the world of gyokuro tea. Besides the amazingly savory umami flavor characteristic of gyokuro, 'The Discovery' is also extremely versatile releasing savory umami flavor at a much wider range of flavors than gyokuro tea itself.
\n
Konacha itself is made up of the smallest, broken bits of tea leaves (not quite powder) left over after processing. Because of the small size, it steeps very quickly.

Product Info
\n
\n
\nIngredients: Green tea
\n
\nHarvest: Spring
\n
\nNotes: Shaded for about 3 weeks before harvest for the extra umami flavor for which gyokuro is known. After processing into dry leaf, the fannings of the leaves (small broken leaf bits) are separated out to form this tea.

\nRegion: Kyoto

THE STORY OF THE DISCOVERY
\n
\n
We actually went out of our way to find this tea after Sencha Tea Ceremony master Yukiko Hasue introduced us. Finding the century old Nakamura-en Tea Shop on the eastern side of Tokyo near the Sumo Wrestling Arena (Ryogoku station), tea merchant Nakamura-san taught us more about gyokuro leaf fannings to share with the world.
\n
Nakamura-san does speak a bit of conversational English, so if you are ever in Tokyo do visit his shop!! He has no website though, so simply follow this simple map (GOOGLE MAP).

We have named our product 'Aoyanagi in May' for spring harvest, 'Aoyanagi' for summer harvest, and 'Bancha Organic' for autumn harvest.

We recommend the warm water steeping method. Steep it in a small amount at low temperature to enjoy the umami flavors more distinctly like gyokuro, then again at higher temperatures to release more flavors.
\n
1st Steeping
\n
Tea: 5 grams. Time: 60 seconds. Water Temperature: 60˚C/140˚F degrees. Water Amount: 160 ml (2/3 cup).
\n
2nd & 3rd Steeping
\n
Much of your umami flavor was extracted in the first steeping. Use a short time (5-15 seconds), because the leaves are already primed to release flavor. Also use hotter water (80˚ - 90˚C / 176˚ - 194˚F) in order to extract the more bitter flavors.
Another shiraore stem tea coming from the award-winning Kurihara Tea Farm. So, what exactly do we meant by shiraore? Shiraore is a term used for kukicha (“twig tea”), or leaf stem tea, made with parts of the tea plant that is usually not used for making the most common type of green tea such as sencha or gyokuro. This shiraore consists of matcha powder and a blend of tea stems, stalks, and twigs which came from the production of their sencha tea. While in Kyushu (the most southern island), the people call this type of tea shiraore, Kyoto folks call it karigane. Because the shiraore is a tea that comes mainly from the stems, the characteristics is a refreshing stalk aroma that will slightly differ from your typical sencha. With the addition of the matcha powder, you will experience a vegetal tea, light-bodied with a deep green color.
\n
Kukicha is a fantastic staple tea to add especially because a high quality kukicha such as this one will be pleasing but they are also often affordable. If you are looking to explore in the realm of kukichas, the Kurihara family also has a gyokuro shiraore and imperial shiraore, waiting for you to try!

Another shiraore stem tea coming from the award-winning Kurihara Tea Farm. So, what exactly do we meant by shiraore? Shiraore is a term used for kukicha (“twig tea”), or leaf stem tea, made with parts of the tea plant that is usually not used for making the most common type of green tea such as sencha or gyokuro. This shiraore consists of matcha powder and a blend of tea stems, stalks, and twigs which came from the production of their sencha tea. While in Kyushu (the most southern island), the people call this type of tea shiraore, Kyoto folks call it karigane. Because the shiraore is a tea that comes mainly from the stems, the characteristics is a refreshing stalk aroma that will slightly differ from your typical sencha. With the addition of the matcha powder, you will experience a vegetal tea, light-bodied with a deep green color.
\n
Kukicha is a fantastic staple tea to add especially because a high quality kukicha such as this one will be pleasing but they are also often affordable. If you are looking to explore in the realm of kukichas, the Kurihara family also has a gyokuro shiraore and imperial shiraore, waiting for you to try!

A delicious green tea for your daily cup, the first steeping of Kurihara-san's Hime Kaori offers a smooth balance between sweet and astringent flavors with a hint of roast, perfect for a nice moment of relaxation.
\n
First steeping: 5 grams of tea, 1 minute, 70C/158F degrees, 200 ml water
\n
Primed for flavor extraction, second steeping will come out strong, so pour your hot water into the pot, and immediately out into your cup. The astringency will be noticeable for a strong, full-bodied tea with a hint of sweet but tangy citrus.
\n
Second steeping: 10-20 seconds, 90C/194F degrees, 200 ml water
\n
Grown by the Kurihara brothers in the back hills of Yame, in a small village of a 1000 people called Yabemura.

The women of Kiroku Tea Garden began experimenting with a unique roasting of their tencha tea leaves a few years ago (in cooperation with their roasting partner in Wazuka Village), and created this unique roast—a deep, double-roasting of their single cultivar okumidori spring tencha leaves that creates a sweetness in the tea when steeped.
Tencha is the green tea leaf used to make matcha, and okumidori cultivar spring tencha is highly sought after for matcha. Most farmers would think it a waste to roast these leaves, but in the pursuit of innovation in tea, the Hori family sets aside a small amount each year for creating this sweet roast.
Notes: Roasted. No pesticides used prior to harvest, synthetic fertilizers used.
Region: Wazuka Village, Kyoto Prefecture
Steeping Recommendation
Tea: 5 grams.Time: 1 min.Water: 80C/178F, 200 ml. Resteep up to 6 times.
About the Garden
The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.
Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021).
