About the Garden
\n
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 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).

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.
\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.
\nNotes: Roasted. No pesticides used prior to harvest, synthetic fertilizers used.

Tarui-san's hojicha ground into a fine powder for easy and instant hojicha tea. While you may be familiar with matcha powder, have you ever tried or experimented baking with hojicha (roasted green tea) powder? Like matcha powder, you often see it in ice cream, pudding, lattes, and baked goods such as cookies, cakes, donuts, etc... A simple personal autumn-winter favorite is to bake cookies with hojicha powder and to add white chocolate chips. If you would like inspiration, here is a recipe from Sachiko-san to bake hojicha roll cake!
\n
Hojicha powder can also serve as an easy way to make hojicha quickly and drink 100% of the tea.

This hojicha was made from tea leaves that grew quickly over the summer months and were harvested in early October. Although by this time, the tea leaves will be rather hard (i.e., in comparison to the early summer tea leaves), by roasting the tea leaves, one will obtain a lovely hojicha with a pleasant and autumnal aroma.
\n
Leaves from the autumn harvest are low in caffeine. Therefore, we recommend hojicha to those who care about their caffeine intake and/or to those who are sensitive to caffeine. It is also a perfect tea to enjoy at the end of one’s day. Hojicha can also be easily made with boiling hot water (you do not have to be too careful about the hot water temperature as in senchas), so it is a tea one may enjoy quite light-heartedly and easily.
\n
This hojicha comes from Setoya Megumi Tea Garden in Setoya district, Fujieda city. The tea farm owner, who trained at a tea farm in Fujieda City in 2017, regenerated the abandoned tea plantation with his friends in 2018. The Setoya district is a mountainous area in Fujieda City. We take care to maintain the rich natural environment of this tea farm, with the aim of making delicious tea for both the brewers and drinkers. And, it is pesticide and chemical fertilizer free.

This asakiri hojicha from Morita tea shop was made utilizing the \"head\" of the first tea harvest leaves (i.e., the large part that is screened and sifted during the manufacturing process, and many tea farmers/houses refer to it as the \"willow\" or \"head\"). The degree of roasting of this hojicha can be said to be relatively light in comparison to your typical hojicha.
\n
This tea can also be characterized due to its gentle sweetness, fragrant aroma, with a light reddish-brown (or amber) color. If you prefer your hojicha to be strong, it is recommended to use hot water for a large amount of tea leaves, this will result in a profound aroma. In the summer, one may even enjoy it as an iced hojicha by brewing it in a glass filled with ice. Hojicha is a tea that is accessible to all (e.g., pregnant women and children) because the amount of caffeine contained in the tea leaves decreases during the roasting process. Please enjoy this tea in diverse ways!
\n
The Morita family has been craftily blending tea for some 80 years in the Sayama region of Saitama prefecture (north of Tokyo, and one of the major tea producing regions in Japan) to develop high quality tea. As a blender, they select high quality leaves from various tea farms in Japan, and buy it as aracha or processed but unfinished tea.
This asakiri hojicha from Morita tea shop was made utilizing the \"head\" of the first tea harvest leaves (i.e., the large part that is screened and sifted during the manufacturing process, and many tea farmers/houses refer to it as the \"willow\" or \"head\"). The degree of roasting of this hojicha can be said to be relatively light in comparison to your typical hojicha.
\n
This tea can also be characterized due to its gentle sweetness, fragrant aroma, with a light reddish-brown (or amber) color. If you prefer your hojicha to be strong, it is recommended to use hot water for a large amount of tea leaves, this will result in a profound aroma. In the summer, one may even enjoy it as an iced hojicha by brewing it in a glass filled with ice. Hojicha is a tea that is accessible to all (e.g., pregnant women and children) because the amount of caffeine contained in the tea leaves decreases during the roasting process. Please enjoy this tea in diverse ways!

Yunomi.life’s Women in Tea Sampler Gift Set introduces 5 different teas (10 grams each for you to sample) produced by Japanese farmers who are women.
\n
The set includes two senchas, a hojicha, a wakocha (Japanese black tea), and oolong tea to provide a diversity of different teas for you to try.
\n
In addition to the different types of teas, these teas are all different single, unblended cultivars. Please enjoy the various teas from a couple of the inspiring women working hard in the Japanese tea industry.
\n
Included with this set are the following teas:
\n
\n
\nKuma Tea Garden: Saemidori Imperial Mountain-Grown Sencha - an award-winning tea which is representative of Yame-cha (tea from Yame, Fukuoka Prefecture) with a rich umami and mellow taste. The saemidori cultivar is known for its brilliant green color, please enjoy with its pleasant sweetness.\n
\n
\nAyumi Farms (Cyittorattu): Sencha that Laughs with the Mountains - a classic yabukita cultivar sencha coming from the artisanal tea farmer Ayumi-san in Fujieda, Shizuoka Prefecture. Locally and organically produced, this mountain tea is characterized by its thin and delicate leaves, sweetness, and rounded aroma. \n
\n
\nKiroku Tea Garden: Okumidori Roasted Spring Tencha Amehojicha, The Sweet Roast- a unique double roasted tencha by the three women of Kiroku in Wazuka, Kyoto Prefecture. The roast is done on their single cultivar okumidori spring tencha leaves and creates a welcomed sweetness in the tea when steeped. \n
\n
\nKoukien Tea Garden: Wakocha Kanaya Midori Single Cultivar Black Tea - This Japanese black tea or wakocha comes from sisters Yurie and Akane who are focusing their effort into wakocha production. Made at the foot of the mountains in Kirishima, Kagoshima Prefecture, the kanaya midori cultivar produces a slightly more creamy flavor profile than other cultivars when made into black tea.\n
\n
\nAzuma Tea Garden: Kyoto Oolong Tea, Single Cultivar Uji Midori - an oolong tea made with the uji midori cultivar in Wazuka, Kyoto Prefecture. What is interesting is that without using pesticides, small insects called unka populate the field in the early summer and damage the leaves in a way that turns into a delicious flavor when the leaves are withered into oolong tea (magic!).\n
\n
As a bonus we will also include another 2 types of tea from women producers.

Yunomi’s founder Ian Chun launched the Women in Tea Collection back in October 2021 in efforts to spotlight and encourage the women who have taken on leading roles in their businesses. Perhaps you are already familiar with this collection page and/or have even sampled some of the teas (thank you!). We wanted to again shine the light on these passionate women, and to help connect you to some of these inspiring women (Yunomi’s “people-to-people” philosophy). While women in the Japanese tea industry face a wide-array of experiences and challenges, they share one common beautiful thread which is their love for Japanese tea. With this special Women in Tea Sampler set, we hope that our customers will be able to enjoy teas from women who are passionate about tea and working hard on a day-to-day basis in the Japanese tea industry. Please join us in cheering them on.

Perhaps you are familiar with matcha powder but how is hojicha powder used in Japan? Like matcha powder, you often see it in ice cream, pudding, lattes, and baked goods such as cookies, cakes, donuts, etc... yes, there is room for creativity! If you would like inspiration, here is a recipe to bake hojicha roll cake. Using Zenkouen Tea Garden's hojicha powder will add yumminess to your cake!
Hojicha powder can also serve as an easy way to make hojicha (roasted green tea) quickly (and drink 100% of the tea).
Steeping recommendation
A little scoop is attached to each bag. Use the spoon to scoop 1 heaping of powder (about half a gram) for every 100-150 ml of hot water.
For cold steeping, use 1 teaspoon per liter of water.
We also recommend that you use a small amount of water and mix with the powder into paste first to get rid of clumps.

Ingredients: Roasted green tea
Net weight: 100 grams
Note: Grown without use of pesticides / synthetic fertilizers
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.
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.)
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.
