Heartfelt Wishes for Enjoying True Japanese Green Tea
Throughout its long history, green tea has been cherished by many, evolving with the times. The way green tea is loved varies greatly depending on the era: as a tribute, as a nutritional beverage, as a delicacy... To meet the demands of each era, we have undertaken various initiatives.
And now, in the present day. With the widespread availability of bottled green tea and the popularity of matcha sweets, green tea has become even more familiar. However, in our pursuit of appearance and functionality, I feel that we have drifted away from the essence of green tea.
Concerned about this situation, we have decided to strive for a return to the roots of green tea. From cultivation to production and sales, we are committed to every step of the process. We meticulously adhere to the original taste, aroma, and enjoyment of green tea. To achieve this, we engage with green tea daily.
Striving for a return to the roots of green tea is not something we can accomplish alone. It is thanks to the support of those involved in the green tea industry who share our passion that we have come this far. We truly want many people to enjoy delicious green tea. With a simple yet heartfelt desire, we will continue to pursue the art of green tea-making
