Introduction
The Miyazaki Sabou Tea Garden is a family-operated tea farm and factory in Gokase, Miyazaki (on the southernmost island of Kyushu in Japan). Having grown tea without pesticides of chemical fertilizers for over 30 years, the Miyazaki family has come to represent the best of clean farming.
By not using a single drop of pesticides/fertilizers, we avoid putting nature under stress. Instead, we are able to draw out the true characteristics of the tea, a true "mountain tea" that transport you to the fields. It has a gentle sweetness that lingers in your mouth, and a characteristic aroma. Cultivating many varieties of tea species, we also protect the native species that has a taste truly unique to this field and soil.
