All of our teas are harvested in early summer, and the exact harvest date each year depends on the growing conditions. For the farms we select in the mild mountain climate in the Kyoto region, there is only one harvest season each year.
There is no specific harvest date for our teas. Each is a blend, from different farms and different harvest dates.
There is a long tradition of drinking Obukucha in January in Japan to bring good fortune in the coming year.
The landscape of Japanese tea is intricate. The teas we find delight in today reflect both the tastes of the present and the traditions of the past.
