The image of the leaf says it all. Beautifully shaped, with a deep green color and shine, the appearance of a leaf a this quality signals the most careful cultivation, harvesting and processing as a light steamed, asamushicha.

The Yabukita cultivar, so widely used as it is, acquires a reputation for being too common, ordinary, more bitter than other cultivars like saemidori, asatsuyu, etc. But as the gold standard in the industry, it is also a strong foundation upon which to build crystal sculptures with dazzling complexity....if you are as good as the farmers of Shibakiri Tea Garden. And to think that farmer Sugiyama Tadashi inherited the farm from his late father in 2018 when he was only 19 years old! While relatives have helped him grow as a tea farmer and undoubtedly provide much help and advice, we could only be blown away by the delicacy of this tea.

About Shibakiri Tea Garden

Tea farmer Sugiyama Tadashi grows various cultivars on a few small fields in the mountain village of Mohata, Shimizu City, Shizuoka. Though the Sugiyama family had been farming since 1920, Tadashi himself inherited the farm in 2018 when his father unfortunately passed away. The tea community around him is helping to teach him to create amazing, high-grade teas at very small quantities of a few kilograms to a few dozen kilograms in some cases.
