Making Natural Soil
Our original farming is based on “making healthy soil.” We make it full of life force and nutrient-rich.
We try to do nature-friendly farming. If rich soil is created by natural resources, organic matter, and fallen leaves circulating naturally,tea trees can be supplied with enough nutrients by the organic matter without using chemical fertilizers,and that makes the tea trees stronger and helps them develp antioxidan activity and immune system,and that provides inhibitory effects on plant diseases and pests.
One-tip Two-leaf
he wish contained in the leaves…
We pick sprouts that nutrients were condensed by the temperture difference and ｔook 1 year to grow at the right season.
Freshness is the crucial factor of tea leaves, so we use air-cooling to cool them not to damage them.
Technique of the Master The First Process
Japanese tea steaming process is that we value the right amout of steaming for each day’s tea leaves to make sweet aromas come out of them by balancing the 5 points (angle, amout of steam, ??????, rotation stirring, and input). After that, we slowly hand-roll them with hot air.
Technique of the Master Roasting
We remove stems, powder, etc., from the tea that went through the first process to make clean products.
After that, we bring out the most of aromas and taste of the tea by slowly fire roasting from the center with our original roasting technic.
Technique of the Master Blending
Blending the roasted tea leaves by the technique of the master.
Deliciously blending them by delicately balancing the characteristic tea leaves to let them represent each other.
Extreme Technique Hand-rolling
“Hand-rolling” the original and traditional Japanese tea production method…
It is the basis for the machines used now, so mastering the tea hand-rolling technique leads to maintaining and inheriting the traditon and improving the technique.
Hand-rolling slowly until they become long and thin like needles.
Safe and Secure
We use foreign material removal machines for quality inspections to assure you.
As soon as the inspections are done, we pack them in bags.Also, we use vacuum-packing machines that are shaped like boxes to keep the good quality.
Trust Relationship with Customers
Tasty tea becomes really meaningful when customers are happy with it.
For that, we think bringing up and continuing our achievements like the same traditional taste, the quality, and the thoroughness of quality inspection using foreign material removal machines is what builds trust.
