Winner of the 2022 Nihoncha Awards Platinum Medal! This award is held by the Nihoncha (\"Japanese tea\") Instructor's Association. Unlike regional and national tea competitions held throughout Japan featuring the unrefined tea leaves that come from farmers, the Nihoncha Awards accepts entries from farms, factories and sellers that are commercial products, refined teas meant for drinking by consumers. Awards are given out in August judged by a select panel of experts while they over winners in several categories are chosen after tea tastings are held for the general public (several hundred tasters) in December—a people’s choice type of award.
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.
Chiran in Southwestern Kagoshima Prefecture has become one of the most favored tea production regions in recent years for their ability to grow (with shading) tea leaves that are sweet. This premium curation from the women of Chakouan is sure to please those who enjoy a full-bodied, sweet profile in their green tea.

\n
Organically produced wakocha (Japanese black tea) from a small family-run farm, Koukien Tea Garden. This single cultivar tea was grown at the foot of the mountains in Kirishima, Kagoshima Prefecture. Sisters Yurie and Akane Kawaguchi are continuously working hard to make their wakochas more delicious and enjoyable.
\n
About the cultivar:The kanaya midori cultivar was created in 1949 in the town of Kanaya, Shizuoka, (now part of Shimada City) by crossing Yabukita and a plant grown from seed known as Shizuoka Zairai #16 (S6). It was registered as a cultivar in 1970, but remains a fairly rare cultivar. As a black tea, it produces a slightly more creamy flavor profile than other cultivars.
\nLocation: Makizonocho Santaido, Kirishima, Kagoshima, Japan

Organically produced wakocha (Japanese black tea) from a small family-run farm, Koukien Tea Garden. This single cultivar tea was grown at the foot of the mountains in Kirishima, Kagoshima Prefecture. Sisters Yurie and Akane Kawaguchi are continuously working hard to make their wakochas more delicious and enjoyable.
\n
About the cultivar:The kanaya midori cultivar was created in 1949 in the town of Kanaya, Shizuoka, (now part of Shimada City) by crossing Yabukita and a plant grown from seed known as Shizuoka Zairai #16 (S6). It was registered as a cultivar in 1970, but remains a fairly rare cultivar. As a black tea, it produces a slightly more creamy flavor profile than other cultivars.
Tea farmer Teruko Azuma is originally from China and married into the 4th generation, she and her husband manage a number of tea fields growing primarily tencha for use in matcha production but also a small reserve of sencha and other teas.

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).

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).

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.

Background
\n
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.

A stylish and elegant new sencha from the award-winning Kuma Tea Gardens in Yame, Fukuoka Prefecture. This is a rare tea that is rich with a wide range of notes. This tsuyuhikari sencha features a rich umami that is typical of Yamecha (tea coming from the Yame region) along with the sharpness found in sencha.
\n
When brewed at lower temperatures, it has the best umami and mellow taste. When brewed at higher temperatures, one will obtain a glimpse of the faint aroma of cherry blossoms that is characteristic of the tsuyuhikari cultivar. If you are not sure how to brew it, please know it is a delicious tea no matter how it is brewed so we hope that it will delight you and that you will be able to find your preference.
\n
\n
From Kuma-san (tea farmer):
\n
At Kuma Tea Gardens, this cultivar has been planted for 6 years. It is the first time that I harvested this cultivar and processed it into a fine sencha. I was looking forward, with both excitement and anxiousness, wondering what kind of tea it would be… but I was relieved that a good tea was made! Still, there is much to discover about this tsuyuhikari cultivar, so I am looking forward to trying out various expressions every year from now on.

A stylish and elegant new sencha from the award-winning Kuma Tea Gardens in Yame, Fukuoka Prefecture. This is a rare tea that is rich with a wide range of notes. This tsuyuhikari sencha features a rich umami that is typical of Yamecha (tea coming from the Yame region) along with the sharpness found in sencha.
\n
When brewed at lower temperatures, it has the best umami and mellow taste. When brewed at higher temperatures, one will obtain a glimpse of the faint aroma of cherry blossoms that is characteristic of the tsuyuhikari cultivar. If you are not sure how to brew it, please know it is a delicious tea no matter how it is brewed so we hope that it will delight you and that you will be able to find your preference.

From Kuma-san (tea farmer):
\n
At Kuma Tea Gardens, this cultivar has been planted for 6 years. It is the first time that I harvested this cultivar and processed it into a fine sencha. I was looking forward, with both excitement and anxiousness, wondering what kind of tea it would be… but I was relieved that a good tea was made! Still, there is much to discover about this tsuyuhikari cultivar, so I am looking forward to trying out various expressions every year from now on.
A premium tamaryokucha cultivated in the famous Ureshino region in Saga Prefecture. Tamaryokucha refers to a unique selection of Sencha tea leaves that have skipped the final rolling process. There is a well-rounded mellow sweetness and astringency to this tea, followed by a umami-rich satisfactory after taste. As the name \"Oku\" (English: deep) implies, please enjoy the depth of this tea, including its fruity and sweet aroma. A blend of Saemidori and Yabukita cultivars.

In tea and other very traditional industries you rarely see women in leading roles. But they do exist and this collection is meant to highlight those women who are challenging the status quo. As a criteria for inclusion, we feature products from producers where women take a visible role of leadership becoming role models for other women in this male dominated society. They are farmers, CEOs, business owners, and in some cases were women are front and center as the face of their family businesses (though their husbands and fathers might still be sitting at the head of the table, for now).
And we are just getting started! (read about why we started this effort here) We hope to add many more to this collection, so please join us as we explore great products from the women of Japan.
TIP: If you are browsing other collections, add "/womenintea" to the end of the URL to filter for products from women, or click on the "Women in Tea" box in the Notes filter.
