Get to know the people behind tea
Furuichi Seicha
Rooted in the tea-growing region of Chiran, Kagoshima, Furuichi Seicha is a family-owned tea producer with a passion for crafting exceptional Japanese tea. Founded in 1948 by Noboru Furuichi, the business began with a humble bicycle tea-selling venture before growing into its own tea-finishing factory, built on his vision of creating better-quality tea.
Today, President Shoji Furuichi carries on his father's legacy, overseeing the production, blending, and refinement of teas that showcase the distinctive character of Kagoshima. With a dedication to quality and craftsmanship, Furuichi Seicha brings together generations of experience and a deep appreciation for Japanese tea.
In 2018, the family opened Ocha no Sawaki, their shop and café in Minami-Kyushu, offering visitors a welcoming place to discover and enjoy Japanese tea.
