Who are we?
Deep steamed tea in Kakegawa is recognized for its unbeatable quality.
The beautiful green color of Japanese tea is obtained after applying the heat by steaming leaves to stop fermentation immediately after the harvest.
Our teas are steamed longer, for 1-3 minutes, so that we can extract more flavor agents from the leaves, making them full bodied yet mild feeling in the mouth. This is the definition of "Deep steamed tea".
Kakegawa City is widely known in Japan as the producing region of "Deep steamed tea" and has won "The best producing region award" at National Tea Competition (Deep Steamed Tea Category) for the record 25 times.
