An extra early harvest from the popular tea farm on Yakushima Island, Kagoshima, Japan, this blend by farmer Watanabe-san is an exquisite taste of umami as a lightly steamed sencha. Package may differ from photo.
\nSteaming: Asamushi, or lightly steamed. This results a leaf that is kept more intact than longer steaming, and therefore results in a clearer, liquid that extracts more slowly from the leaf for multiple steepings. This type of steaming is usually reserved for higher quality leaf.
\n
\nOrganic certification: Note to wholesale customers, this product is grown and processed to JAS organic certification. Please contact us for proper organic export documentation. Minimum purchase may be required.

Kuchikiri
\n
手前茶の 口切にさへ ゆふべ哉 temae cha no kuchikiri ni sae yūbe kana The tea before me, I break the seal, in the evening
\n
This poem was written in 1806 by one of Japan's most prominent haiku poets, Kobayashi Issa 小林一茶. The term kuchikiri 口切 refers to the unsealing of tea in the winter. After the spring harvest, traditionally (particularly prior to modern refrigeration) tea producers would would seal gyokuro (as well as tencha, the leaf used for matcha) in a jar (tsubo 壷) and store in a cool place (underground or in a cave). The storage during the hot summer and into winter allows the leaf to age, allowing any remaining bitter-tasting catechin to degrade, rounding out the flavor. The tradition has become an event and ceremony in Kyoto and other regions.
\n
The term is also used by poets as a seasonal indicator, adding an additional layer of hidden meaning to the haiku. I'm not sure my translation is entirely accurate...I couldn't figure out the significance of the \"ni sae\" and the nuance of the \"kana\"...if you are a student of Japanese poetry, please feel free correct me in the comments!
\n
This tea has followed this process, so we are naming it \"kuchikiri\" in honor of both the tradition and one of my favorite poets, Kobayashi Issa.
\n
Organic cultivation
\n
What is also unique is the richness of the umami flavor despite the fact that the leaves were grown organically. Non-organic cultivation allows farmers to infuse their tea plants with nutrients, creating an intensely rich umami flavor--a flavor that also attracts pests, and requires pesticides to deal with the pests. Growing organically, most examples of organic gyokuro can't attain a high level of umami due to the need to avoid leaf damage from insects.
\n
\"Kuchikiri\" is able to achieve a smooth, rich gyokuro flavor due to the skill of the farmer who grew the leaves for \"Kuchikiri\", and the refiner who both aged the leaf over the last 9 months as well as green-roasting just enough to enhance the sweetness of the leaf.
\n
Saemidori Cultivar
\n
Finally, \"Kuchikiri\" benefits from being a single cultivar, utilizing the naturally umami-rich and bright green saemidori cultivar.

This Okumidori cultivar kabusecha is part of Sueyoshi’s Furusato no Hana series (郷里の華) comes from the increasingly popular Okumidori cultivar. Literally, “hometown flower”, the name will conjure up feelings of nostalgia for the countryside, transporting you to the tea fields of the Soo region on the Southernmost main island of Japan, Kagoshima.
\n
The delicate dance of sweetness, bitterness and umami, results in a deeply refreshing tea experience. With the first sip, you sense the umami melting in your mouth. With the second sip, a perfect combination of sweetness and bitterness follows. This tea will leave a soft, gentle impression in your mouth.
\n
Mataki Tatefumi practices the Chagusaba agricultural method for growing tea leaves in which grass (primarily suzuki) grown around the fields are cut, dried, and laid between the tea hedges to prevent weed growth and to fertilize the soil.
\nCultivation notes: Utilizes Chagusaba Agriculture, shaded for extra umami flavor
\n
\nProduction notes: Regular steamed and very lightly green-roasted.
\n
\n
About the Farmer

This Okumidori cultivar kabusecha is part of Sueyoshi’s Furusato no Hana series (郷里の華) comes from the increasingly popular Okumidori cultivar. Literally, “hometown flower”, the name will conjure up feelings of nostalgia for the countryside, transporting you to the tea fields of the Soo region on the Southernmost main island of Japan, Kagoshima.
\n
The delicate dance of sweetness, bitterness and umami, results in a deeply refreshing tea experience. With the first sip, you sense the umami melting in your mouth. With the second sip, a perfect combination of sweetness and bitterness follows. This tea will leave a soft, gentle impression in your mouth.
\n
Mataki Tatefumi practices the Chagusaba agricultural method for growing tea leaves in which grass (primarily suzuki) grown around the fields are cut, dried, and laid between the tea hedges to prevent weed growth and to fertilize the soil.
\nCultivation notes: Utilizes Chagusaba Agriculture, shaded for extra umami flavor
\n
\nProduction notes: Regular steamed and very lightly green-roasted.

About the Farmer
\n
Mataki Takefumi, 3rd generation tea farmer and CEO of Sueyoshi Tea Atelier, believes tea brings forth connections. With this philosophy in mind, they strive to deliver their delicately and finely grown teas to as many people as possible. They also aspire to promote a meaningful way of living that will extend beyond one’s cup of tea.
\n
The Sueyoshi farm and factory is located in the Soo district (pronounced “Soh-oh”) in Kagoshima Prefecture. A stunning volcanic mountain range rich with biodiversity, the region is on the southern end of the beautiful Kirishima Mountain Range. Mataki-san takes pride in selecting the highest quality tea leaves (harvested once a year), leaves that have been grown with time and deep care.
\n
He is also proactive in preserving the biodiveristy of the region through the practice of Chagusaba Agriculture from Shizuoka Prefecture, recognized as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System (GIAHS) in 2013 by UNESCO.

Product info
\n
\n
\nIngredients: Green tea.
\n
\nHarvest: Spring
\n
\nCultivation: Grown without use of pesticides / synthetic fertilizers. Shaded 3-4 weeks before harvest.
\n
\nPackaging: Silver plastic bag inside resealable bag.
\n
\nStorage: We recommend storing one 30-gram bag at room temperature for daily use in the screw top can or resealable bag, and the remaining in your freezer for long-term storage if you buy more than one at once. NOTE: For freezer storage, double-seal in a plastic ziplock bag and tupperware container for maximum freshness and to avoid other food smells from affecting the matcha. Always allow the bag to sit for 24-hours before unsealing to acclimate to room temperature. This avoids condensation from damaging the matcha powder.
\n
\n
Did you know matcha is best when it's freshly ground?
\n
How good your matcha is depends of course on the quality of the underlying leaf. However, producers buy many different production lots from many different farmers. Their skill, the reason why we call them master blenders, is in blending the leaves prior to grinding to create a specific profile in terms of powder color, powder aroma, grain size, matcha color, and most importantly the flavor of the matcha.
\n
While the harvest season can make a big difference in quality since larger autumn leaves will be more bitter and more difficult to grind into fine powder, the harvest year is not necessarily important particularly right after the spring harvest (May - August). At this time, leaves may actually be too fresh to make good matcha--their flavor may create matcha that is very strong in umami but also too bitter. Meanwhile, leaves thathave aged over the past year will be more mellow and perfect for balancing the fresh leaf.
\n
Matcha however does get old quickly after grinding. In 6 months after grinding the color will fade, and the aroma will disappear. After 9 months, the strength of the flavor will also fade. As a result, higher grade matcha tends to have a best by date of 3-6 months, while lower grade matcha has a best by date of 12 months in Japan. Western brands often have a 18-24 month shelf life though.
\n
As a rule, we do our best to ensure that the Yunomi branded matcha is never older the 6 months from grinding, and that matcha other brands are never older than 6 months from procurement.

\nIngredients: Green tea.
\n
\nHarvest: Spring
\n
\nCultivation: Grown without use of pesticides / synthetic fertilizers. Shaded 3-4 weeks before harvest.
\n
\nPackaging: Silver plastic bag inside resealable bag.
\n
\nStorage: We recommend storing one 30-gram bag at room temperature for daily use in the screw top can or resealable bag, and the remaining in your freezer for long-term storage if you buy more than one at once. NOTE: For freezer storage, double-seal in a plastic ziplock bag and tupperware container for maximum freshness and to avoid other food smells from affecting the matcha. Always allow the bag to sit for 24-hours before unsealing to acclimate to room temperature. This avoids condensation from damaging the matcha powder.
\n
\n
Did you know matcha is best when it's freshly ground?
\n
How good your matcha is depends of course on the quality of the underlying leaf. However, producers buy many different production lots from many different farmers. Their skill, the reason why we call them master blenders, is in blending the leaves prior to grinding to create a specific profile in terms of powder color, powder aroma, grain size, matcha color, and most importantly the flavor of the matcha.
\n
While the harvest season can make a big difference in quality since larger autumn leaves will be more bitter and more difficult to grind into fine powder, the harvest year is not necessarily important particularly right after the spring harvest (May - August). At this time, leaves may actually be too fresh to make good matcha--their flavor may create matcha that is very strong in umami but also too bitter. Meanwhile, leaves thathave aged over the past year will be more mellow and perfect for balancing the fresh leaf.
\n
Matcha however does get old quickly after grinding. In 6 months after grinding the color will fade, and the aroma will disappear. After 9 months, the strength of the flavor will also fade. As a result, higher grade matcha tends to have a best by date of 3-6 months, while lower grade matcha has a best by date of 12 months in Japan. Western brands often have a 18-24 month shelf life though.
\n
As a rule, we do our best to ensure that the Yunomi branded matcha is never older the 6 months from grinding, and that matcha other brands are never older than 6 months from procurement.

Fukamushi sencha from Chiran, Kagoshima Prefecture. Fukamushi is a special method of processing sencha tea leaves that involves an extended steaming time. As a result, the leaves tend to lose their shape, crumbling into small particles much easier than other sencha teas. This transforms the flavor from a clean, smooth tasting tea, to a tea that is thick and strong in flavor for the amount and quality level of the leaf itself.

Fukamushi sencha from Chiran, Kagoshima Prefecture. Fukamushi is a special method of processing sencha tea leaves that involves an extended steaming time. As a result, the leaves tend to lose their shape, crumbling into small particles much easier than other sencha teas. This transforms the flavor from a clean, smooth tasting tea, to a tea that is thick and strong in flavor for the amount and quality level of the leaf itself.
\n
Kagoshima, Chiran-cha
\n
Kagoshima is the second largest tea production region in Japan. Chiran is a small town located in southern Kagoshima Prefecture, known for samurai district and gardens that have been preserved since the Edo period. Chiran-cha refers to and is a brand name for tea grown in the town of Chiran.

Roasted delicately by tea farmer Mataki Tatefumi until just before the leaves begin to turn brown, this Green Hojicha or Aohojicha 青ほうじ茶 can be considered a very light roast or a very strong green roasting.
\n
Mataki Tatefumi practices the Chagusaba agricultural method for growing tea leaves in which grass (primarily suzuki) grown around the fields are cut, dried, and laid between the tea hedges to prevent weed growth and to fertilize the soil.
The sweet and simultaneously toasty aroma is unique. Not green tea, but not quite the aroma of hojicha either. The flavor is also a combination of the toastiness of hojicha, with sweet vegetal-ness and a slightly astringent aftertaste.
Mataki Takefumi, 3rd generation tea farmer and CEO of Sueyoshi Tea Atelier, believes tea brings forth connections. With this philosophy in mind, they strive to deliver their delicately and finely grown teas to as many people as possible. They also aspire to promote a meaningful way of living that will extend beyond one’s cup of tea.
\n
The Sueyoshi farm and factory is located in the Soo district (pronounced “Soh-oh”) in Kagoshima Prefecture. A stunning volcanic mountain range rich with biodiversity, the region is on the southern end of the beautiful Kirishima Mountain Range. Mataki-san takes pride in selecting the highest quality tea leaves (harvested once a year), leaves that have been grown with time and deep care.
\n
He is also proactive in preserving the biodiveristy of the region thru the practice of Chagusaba Agriculture from Shizuoka Prefecture, recognized as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System (GIAHS) in 2013 by UNESCO.

Bocha (BOH-chah) is a type of tea made from larger stems filtered from larger leaves, then usually roasted until brown, and often called \"twig tea\" because it resembles small twigs as a result.
\n
However, Mataki-san doesn't roast this spring-harvested bocha created from single cultivar and shaded okumidori kabusecha that has been deep steamed. Unroasted, and not strictly filtered from tea leaves, it creates a tea with a sweet, delicate scent and rich umami.
\n
A soft aftertaste, gentle to the mouth, this tea will make you want to experience it again and again. On the second round, steep this bocha at a higher temperature and you may be pleasantly surprised by a subtle edge, followed by a mellow sweetness.

Bocha (BOH-chah) is a type of tea made from larger stems filtered from larger leaves, then usually roasted until brown, and often called \"twig tea\" because it resembles small twigs as a result.
\n
However, Mataki-san doesn't roast this spring-harvested bocha created from single cultivar and shaded okumidori kabusecha that has been deep steamed. Unroasted, and not strictly filtered from tea leaves, it creates a tea with a sweet, delicate scent and rich umami.
\n
A soft aftertaste, gentle to the mouth, this tea will make you want to experience it again and again. On the second round, steep this bocha at a higher temperature and you may be pleasantly surprised by a subtle edge, followed by a mellow sweetness.
\n
Awards: Teas of the World 2019 Gourmet Medal
\n
Mataki Tatefumi practices the Chagusaba agricultural method for growing tea leaves in which grass (primarily suzuki) grown around the fields are cut, dried, and laid between the tea hedges to prevent weed growth and to fertilize the soil.
\nCultivation notes: Utilizes Chagusaba Agriculture, very lightly roasted
\n
\nProduction notes: Deep steamed (fukamushi) and lightly green-roasted

About the Farmer
\n
Mataki Tatefumi, 3rd generation tea farmer and CEO of Sueyoshi Tea Atelier, believes tea brings forth connections. With this philosophy in mind, they strive to deliver their delicately and finely grown teas to as many people as possible. They also aspire to promote a meaningful way of living that will extend beyond one’s cup of tea.
\n
The Sueyoshi farm and factory is located in the Soo district (pronounced “Soh-oh”) in Kagoshima Prefecture. A stunning volcanic mountain range rich with biodiversity, the region is on the southern end of the beautiful Kirishima Mountain Range. Mataki-san takes pride in selecting the highest quality tea leaves (harvested once a year), leaves that have been grown with time and deep care.
\n
He is also proactive in preserving the biodiveristy of the region thru the practice of Chagusaba Agriculture from Shizuoka Prefecture, recognized as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System (GIAHS) in 2013 by UNESCO.

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.

Single cultivar, Saemidori, tea leaves grown inKagoshima Prefecture(southern Japan) are deep steamed to make fukamushicha, a form of sencha where the leaves are broken up into small piece and that creates a deep opaque green liquor. Refined by Matsuki-san at his factory in Niigata Prefecture (northern Japan), this is a luxurious treat for any green tea lover.
\n
The Saemidori cultivar (which means \"clear green\") was first cross-bred in 1969 between Asatsuyu, the \"natural gyokuro\" for its rich umami flavors, and the popular Yabukita which balances flavor with great crop yield and resistance to disease. This cultivar is becoming more familiar and liked by Japanese tea lovers and is wide spread in Kagoshima Prefecture.

A single cultivar, Yutaka Midori from Seikoen Tea Factory. The tea leaves were grown in Kagoshima Prefecture (southern Japan) are deep steamed to make fukamushicha, a form of sencha where the leaves are broken up into small piece and that creates a deep opaque green liquor. Refined by Matsuki-san at his factory in Niigata Prefecture (northern Japan), the base grade of this lot forms a tea that is wonderful for your daily cup.
\n
A note about the cultivar: Yutaka Midori (ゆたかみどり) means abundant green in Japanese. It is a cultivar that is mostly found in Kagoshima prefecture (30% cultivated area) as it is a cultivar that is suitable for warm weather. This cultivar ranks second after the Yabukita cultivar with respect to cultivation area and popularity in Japan. While producers often mix the Yutaka Midori with other cultivars, a single cultivar tea will give a deep green color with a balanced astringency and sweetness and pleasant fragrance.

Nanmei is one of the newest cultivars in Japan, only released in 2012 and registered in 2014
\n\n
by the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization in Japan. It is a cross between Sayama Kaori and Makurazaki 13 (first created in 1992), and is the first tea cultivar in the world to be developed using DNA marker-assisted selection (note: not DNA-modification, but identifying characteristics in the DNA of the cultivars chosen to be parents), which was used to select the gene, MSR1, to confer resistance to white peach scale disease (Pseudaulacaspis pentagona (Targioni)).
\n
Nanmei is an early sprouting cultivar (10 days earlier than Yabukita, and 6 days earlier for crop harvest). The researchers believe it is best suited for warmer climates in Southern Japan like that of Tanegashima Island. The cultivar tends to produce better yield and tea quality than Yabukita.

Product Info
\n
\n
\nPackaging: During the months of May and June, products procured will use the shincha (新茶) package. Afterwards, the ordinary packages are used. \n
Rainforest Alliance certified, family-owned tea farm, Wakoen Co., Ltd., presents a premium, deep steamed fukamushicha green tea, Miyabi - meaning \"elegance\".
\n
This tea is shaded for 7-10 days to increase its umami flavor and reduce bitterness, and is then deep-steamed (steamed for a longer than usual amount of time), which creates a very soft leaf, broken into fragments during rolling. This creates a deep, richly flavored and beautifully opaque green tea.
\nResteep up to 3 times. The second resteeping can be quick, water in and out as the leaves are already primed. Using hotter water may also extract stronger flavor in subsequent steeps.
\n
Use cooler water for sweeter flavors, hotter water for more bitter flavors
\n
Use more tea leaves, less water, or longer time for greater strength of flavor.
One of Japan's largest family owned tea farms, the Horiguchi family has been operating since 1948 and currently manages 120 hectares directly with another 100 hectares cultivated by contract partner farms. The company is certified FSSC22000, the top food safety standard globally, Rainforest Alliance certified, and certified to product organic tea.
\n
Cultivation utilizes mechanical pest controls: their machines Hurricane King utilizes wind and water pressure to blow away insects, and Steam Buster SL uses steam to kill weeds.

This tea is shaded for 7-10 days to increase its umami flavor and reduce bitterness, and is then deep-steamed (steamed for a longer than usual amount of time), which creates a very soft leaf, broken into fragments during rolling.

One of the first (if not THE first) harvest of the season!
\n
Shoju is a rare cultivar grown by Tanegashima Island tea farmer Iba Takahiro, shaded for about 10 days, and harvested in the third week of March making it one of the earliest teas harvested in Japan. As such, Iba-san is interviewed by TV crews every year!
\n
2024’s harvest was the second earliest in history on March 18 (2010 was the earliest at March 16). Iba-san says he determines the harvest by determine the start of shading after the second leaf bud appears, and decided to harvest around the 4th leaf bud appearance then harvesting a bud and 3-4 young, tender leaves. He pays careful attention to the leaf growth at this time of the year to determine the perfect timing.
\n
Total crop yield this year was only 25kg, and already sold out at the farm, so our stock is limited to what we have!

\n
One of the first (if not THE first) harvest of the season!
\n
Shoju is a rare cultivar grown by Tanegashima Island tea farmer Iba Takahiro, shaded for about 10 days, and harvested in the third week of March making it one of the earliest teas harvested in Japan. As such, Iba-san is interviewed by TV crews every year!
\n
2024’s harvest was the second earliest in history on March 18 (2010 was the earliest at March 16). Iba-san says he determines the harvest by determine the start of shading after the second leaf bud appears, and decided to harvest around the 4th leaf bud appearance then harvesting a bud and 3-4 young, tender leaves. He pays careful attention to the leaf growth at this time of the year to determine the perfect timing.
\n
Total crop yield this year was only 25kg, and already sold out at the farm, so our stock is limited to what we have!

About Tanegashima Island, Kagoshima Prefecture
\n
Tanegashima Island is a small Japanese island located in the southwestern region of the country, known for its rich history and natural beauty. The island is renowned for being the site of Japan's first contact with firearms and Western culture, as well as being a launch site for rockets and space exploration. With its stunning beaches, lush forests, and diverse wildlife, Tanegashima Island has become a popular destination for tourists seeking a unique and unforgettable experience in Japan.
\n
Because if it’s southern latitude, tea fields on the island are some of the earliest to be harvested in Japan, with the first harvest occurring at the end of March.
Rainforest Alliance certified, family-owned tea farm, Wakoen Co., Ltd., presents a premium, deep steamed fukamushicha green tea, Kaori - meaning \"aroma\".
\n
This tea is shaded for 7-10 days to increase its umami flavor and reduce bitterness, and is then deep-steamed (steamed for a longer than usual amount of time), which creates a very soft leaf, broken into fragments during rolling. This creates a deep, richly flavored and beautifully opaque green tea.
\nResteep up to 3 times. The second resteeping can be quick, water in and out as the leaves are already primed. Using hotter water may also extract stronger flavor in subsequent steeps.
\n
Use cooler water for sweeter flavors, hotter water for more bitter flavors
\n
Use more tea leaves, less water, or longer time for greater strength of flavor.
One of Japan's largest family owned tea farms, the Horiguchi family has been operating since 1948 and currently manages 120 hectares directly with another 100 hectares cultivated by contract partner farms. The company is certified FSSC22000, the top food safety standard globally, Rainforest Alliance certified, and certified to product organic tea.
\n
Cultivation utilizes mechanical pest controls: their machines Hurricane King utilizes wind and water pressure to blow away insects, and Steam Buster SL uses steam to kill weeds.

Rainforest Alliance certified, family-owned tea farm, Wakoen Co., Ltd., presents a premium, deep steamed fukamushicha green tea, Kaori - meaning \"aroma\".
\n
This tea is shaded for 7-10 days to increase its umami flavor and reduce bitterness, and is then deep-steamed (steamed for a longer than usual amount of time), which creates a very soft leaf, broken into fragments during rolling. This creates a deep, richly flavored and beautifully opaque green tea.
\nResteep up to 3 times. The second resteeping can be quick, water in and out as the leaves are already primed. Using hotter water may also extract stronger flavor in subsequent steeps.
\n
Use cooler water for sweeter flavors, hotter water for more bitter flavors
\n
Use more tea leaves, less water, or longer time for greater strength of flavor.
One of Japan's largest family owned tea farms, the Horiguchi family has been operating since 1948 and currently manages 120 hectares directly with another 100 hectares cultivated by contract partner farms. The company is certified FSSC22000, the top food safety standard globally, Rainforest Alliance certified, and certified to product organic tea.
\n
Cultivation utilizes mechanical pest controls: their machines Hurricane King utilizes wind and water pressure to blow away insects, and Steam Buster SL uses steam to kill weeds.
