\nName: Hiraoka Tea Garden

\nCEO: Tadahito Hiraoka
\n
\nLocation: Sayama, Saitama
\n
\nEstablished: During the Edo Period (1600 - 1868, exact date unknown)
Creating organic gyokuro has been something of a holy grail for those interested. Why? Due to the heavy fertilization that is necessary to produce the richness in gyokuro, it has been very difficult to achieve using organic fertilizers. This attempt by Nishide-san and the farmers he works with is quite decent with rich umami flavors that spread across the tongue.
\n
This Nishide OG18 gyokuro was made from two cultivars that are from the Kyoto prefecture: Gokou and Ujimidori. These two cultivars were especially developed to suit the soil and climate of Kyoto prefecture. Both are cultivars that are very appropriate for shading. That is why they are often made into gyokuro or matcha. With the gokou cultivar known for its' rich umami and the Ujimidori characteristic of its aromatic characteristics (floral, creamy aroma), please delight in the dance of these two cultivars! Oh, and please don't forget to enjoy across multiple (3-4) steeps.

The Nishide Tea Factory is managed by husband and wife team, Takashi and Atsuko Nishide and their family. Established over 140 years ago, the Nishide family buys aracha tea (unrefined leaves) from the tea farms of Kyoto and surrounding prefectures, and refines them further to craft high quality tea leaves that are uniform in color and shape, and of course excellent in flavor.

Kuma Tea Gardens’ award winning saemidori sencha is a tea which will make you pleasantly realize that Japanese tea can indeed be sweet. This tea is their hatsu-tsumi sencha, which is their \"First picking\" or the tea farmer's very first harvest of the spring season. The saemidori cultivar is known for its brilliant color and brilliant green is exactly what you get with this leaf when steeping at hotter temperatures. Besides the pleasant color, the surprising amount of umami flavor despite zero shading (i.e., it is a sencha) is a testament to Kuma-san's soil development and care for his tea bushes. This saemidori sencha received the gold medal (Prix D'OR) in the Japanese Tea Selection Paris 2020.

A note from Kuma-san (tea farmer):
\n
A tea which is representative of Yame-cha (Yame, Fukuoka’s tea) with a mellow taste and rounded sweetness. We are proud to present you with this sencha that can be characterized by a soft but rich condensed taste and a refreshing flavor, which we hope will make your heart content! When brewed with ice, the rich umami and sweetness that this tea produces will make you mistake it for a gyokuro… The refreshing aroma of this tea upon opening this tea package is exquisite and inviting. We will be delighted if you may enjoy this authentic tea from Yame!
\n
\n
Steeping notes
\n
We find that this tea is so delicate, you can have a lot of fun steeping it like a gyokuro.
2nd steeping - Time: 20 sec. Water: 90C/194F, 200 ml.
\n
3rd steeping - Time: 60 sec. Water: 90C/194F, 200 ml.
\n
Remember, these are just guidelines (and may differ on our label). You can and should adjust according to your preference. More tea / less water / longer time for a stronger flavor; lower temperature for more sweetness / hotter temperature for more bitterness.
Steaming: A long chumushi (regular) but not quite fukamushi (deep steamed) creating leaf that is largely powdery but retains some shape and a tea liquor that is deep green and opaque when steeped at a hot temperature.

This imperial gyokuro, Fukujyu will not disappoint. It contains plenty of theanine, which is an umami ingredient. AOI Seicha’s manager will state with pride that one can fully enjoy the deep umami and sweetness as you make contact with the tea in your mouth. On top of the rich taste in your mouth, this gyokuro also has a unique aroma. The Fukujyu is recommended for those who are curious to try a little luxurious gyokuro...
\n
Shaded for sweet umami
\n
As a tea factory specializing in matcha production, AOI Seicha has an extensive network of farmers growing a different kind of shaded tea -- gyokuro.

Steeping notes
\n
\n
\nFirst steeping - Tea: 3 grams. Time: 3-5 minutes. Water: 50C/122F, 80 ml. The purpose of this steep is to create an rich, umami syrup-like broth.
\n
\nSecond steeping - Time: immediate. Water: 70-90C/160-195F, 200 ml In subsequent steeps, you've already primed the leaves and extracted much of the umami, so enjoy the other flavors with water at hotter temperatures.
Remember, steeping at a hotter temperature extracts caffeine and bitter-tasting catechin (antioxidants) while cooler temperature extracts only the umami-tasting L-theanine and other sweet flavors. Since the bitter flavors overwhelm the umami flavors, we recommend the above.
\n
Also try cold steeping as well as ice steeping!

Steeping notes
\n
\n
\nFirst steeping - Tea: 3 grams. Time: 3-5 minutes. Water: 50C/122F, 80 ml. The purpose of this steep is to create an rich, umami syrup-like broth.
\n
\nSecond steeping - Time: immediate. Water: 70-90C/160-195F, 200 ml In subsequent steeps, you've already primed the leaves and extracted much of the umami, so enjoy the other flavors with water at hotter temperatures.
Remember, steeping at a hotter temperature extracts caffeine and bitter-tasting catechin (antioxidants) while cooler temperature extracts only the umami-tasting L-theanine and other sweet flavors. Since the bitter flavors overwhelm the umami flavors, we recommend the above.
\n
Also try cold steeping as well as ice steeping!

A premium sencha coming from the Yokota Tea Garden which was picked on the 88th night (Japanese: 八十八夜; hachijyu-hachiya). According to the traditional Japanese lunar calendar, hachijyu-hachiya signifies the 88th night after the start of spring and is also used to mark the start of shincha harvesting. Tea from this harvest is said to bring you a fortuitous life. Meanwhile the first picking of the season is called hatsutsumi. Early picking of younger leaves generates a tea with an extra delicate and sweeter flavor profile with an aroma full of early summer. The younger leaves were then deep steamed to make a fukamushicha. Grown by 4th, 5th, and 6th generation tea farmers in the famous Sayama region of Saitama Prefecture.

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.

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 Hokumei single cultivar tea from the Yoshino Tea Garden has a refreshing taste, almost as if a breath of fresh air was passing through your mouth. Characterised with a good balance of umami and astringency, this tea can also be enjoyed after meals. The cultivar Hokumei (in Japanese: 北茗) was developed by the Saitama Prefecture Tea Experimental Station. It is a cultivar that is similar to the more common Yabukita cultivar with more resilience to the cold weather. In particular, the finished leaves of this cultivar has a good appearance and gifted with a fresh aroma.

The wonderful story of this Wha-ha-ha Three Year Bancha is that Ayumi-san's (i.e., Ayumi Kinezuka from Cyittorattu in Fujieda, Shizuoka) tea lover friends gathered together and harvested what had been abandoned tea plants, in a traditional winter harvest. This three year bancha, which was produced through cooperation and laughter (hence, it’s name, \"wha-ha-ha\"), was slowly roasted over a wood fire.
\n
The three year bancha tea is low in caffeine and thus is often recommended for pregnant women, children, and the elderly. It is a tea that will warm your body, heart and soul (especially great for autumn and winter times), filled with the vitality of the tea plants and the camaraderie and laughter of friends. For the matcha lovers out there, banchas are also great teas as a post-matcha drink.
