Philosophy

Their sencha and hojicha are cultivated using organic fertilizers and no agricultural chemicals, ensuring a natural, clean taste that reflects the richness of the land.

While their matcha is not certified organic, it is nourished through a balanced blend of organic and chemical fertilizers to provide ample nutrients and a deep, satisfying flavor.

Sourced in Uji

The tea fields of Ujitawara are celebrated for their exceptional quality, a result of the area’s ideal terrain, fertile soil, and misty climate—conditions that have supported tea cultivation for centuries.

Among these, the Okudaifuku area holds particular historical importance, as it is said to be the first place where tea trees were planted in Japan.
