This year, we've successfully secured this exceptionally sought-after green tea, known for its deep steaming process that brings out a lush, grassy flavor and a rich umami essence. Sourced from Kagoshima, this fukamushi green tea delivers an explosion of taste with every sip.

The high quality of Oku Midori is evident from the first taste. It features a vibrant emerald green color and a potent aroma that speaks to its freshness and purity. Harvested from the first flush of young spring leaves, it offers a refined experience that many consider to be among the best green teas available.

We ensure maximum freshness by nitrogen flushing and vacuum packaging our tea soon after harvesting. This careful preservation guarantees that you’re getting as fresh a cup of green tea as possible.

Each package contains 100 grams of Oku Midori, ready to be steeped into a perfect cup of green tea that is sure to impress both new enthusiasts and seasoned connoisseurs alike.

Experience the art of Japanese tea brewing with our handcrafted teapot from Tokoname, Japan. This teapot is meticulously designed to optimize the brewing of deep-steamed green tea (fukamushi-cha), although it is equally effective with all types of green teas, including gyokuro. Its versatility makes it perfect for both personal use and hosting, capable of brewing single cups or multiple servings with ease.

A standout feature of this Tokoname teapot is the innovative built-in stainless steel infuser screen, strategically placed to cover only a small area inside the spout. This design is particularly effective at preventing the fine, sometimes dust-like particles of fukamushi tea leaves from escaping into the cup, a common issue with other teapots.

With a capacity of 11 ounces (320ml), this teapot not only provides functionality but also adds a touch of elegance to your teatime, embodying the traditional craftsmanship of Tokoname pottery. It's an essential for any green tea enthusiast looking to enhance their brewing process and enjoy the full flavor and aroma of their favorite teas.

Introducing our innovative left-handed teapot, a rare find specially designed for the green tea enthusiast. Crafted with precision in Tokoname, Japan, a region celebrated for its exquisite ceramic artistry, this teapot is an exceptional choice for those who prefer using their left hand. Its unique design makes it particularly suitable for brewing deep-steamed green tea (fukamushi-cha), although it excels with all types of green tea, including gyokuro.

The challenge with brewing fukamushi, which often consists of fine, dust-like leaves, is that small particles can clog the mesh of standard teapots. Our teapot addresses this issue with a specialized built-in stainless steel infuser screen strategically placed inside the spout to minimize blockages and enhance the brewing process. This feature ensures a smooth, enjoyable tea experience with every pour.

With a capacity of 12 ounces (360ml), this teapot is perfect for preparing both multiple cups or a single cup of green tea, catering to your specific needs at any moment.

Experience the unparalleled quality of our handcrafted Shiboridashi teapot from Tokoname Prefecture, Japan. This exquisite teapot is increasingly rare and highly sought after by tea connoisseurs, especially those who appreciate the delicate nuances of brewing gyokuro, the most luxurious and costly type of loose-leaf green tea. Designed to brew at lower temperatures with a double amount of loose leaves, this teapot is perfect for extracting the subtle flavors and deep umami characteristic of gyokuro.

The Shiboridashi teapot's small size is purposefully designed to hold about 60ml (2 ounces) of water, making it ideal for preparing just one or two small cups at a time. This allows for multiple, concentrated infusions, each capturing the essence of the tea. The unique design features a thin gap between the inner body of the teapot and the lid, eliminating the need for a traditional filter basket and enhancing the infusion process for larger leaf teas like gyokuro and light-steamed asamushi sencha.

It’s important to note that due to its specific design, this teapot is best suited for larger leaf teas and not recommended for fine leaf particles like those found in deep-steamed green tea (fukamushi-cha).

Each Shiboridashi teapot is a testament to the artisan's skill, with attention to detail that might not be immediately apparent but significantly enhances both functionality and aesthetic appeal. Given the handcrafted nature of these teapots, slight variations from the images shown may occur, adding to the uniqueness of each piece.

For those deeply engaged in the art of tea, particularly gyokuro enthusiasts, our Shiboridashi and Houhin teapots offer an optimal brewing tool, combining traditional craftsmanship with effective modern design.

Discover the delightful richness of Shizuoka Sencha Haruna, a green tea celebrated for its unmistakable sweetness and vibrant, full-bodied flavor. Grown in the nutrient-rich soils of the Makinohara plateau's Sakabe area, Haruna is harvested at the peak of its taste profile, ensuring each cup is a profound experience.

Named after the supplier's daughter, 'Haruna' embodies growth and strength, mirroring the robust and resilient character of this exceptional tea. This variety boasts a bold sweetness paired with a refreshing astringency and a cool, clean finish, offering a sophisticated tea-drinking experience.

While Haruna shares its origins with our 'Mio' green tea, being harvested just two days apart gives each a distinct flavor profile. Haruna is notably sweeter and more pronounced, whereas Mio is revered for its subtle softness. Both teas invite a delightful comparison to find your favorite.

Brewing Haruna is straightforward, but for the best experience, we recommend a teapot designed for fukamushi-cha. Proper brewing temperature and timing are crucial to capture the tea's essence. Packaged in nitrogen-filled bags to maintain freshness, each 100-gram package promises exceptional quality and flavor.

Explore the unique characteristics of Shizuoka Sencha Haruna and delight in its exquisite taste and aroma.

A few years back, we stumbled upon a real treasure and immediately knew we had to have it—this incredibly delicious sencha green tea. It is crafted from the tender young buds that haven't quite reached full maturity, which gives it a unique gentle sweetness and a taste that lingers beautifully after each sip. This tea, our 100% Yabukita "Mio", comes from the first flush of spring leaves, right from the Sakabe District of the Makinohara Plateau—Japan's top spot for tea thanks to its superior soil and climate.

What sets Sencha "Mio" apart is its medium steaming process, which imparts a subtle sweetness that is distinctly pleasant. It's a flavor that stays with you, perfectly balancing sweetness with a light astringency that keeps it interesting cup after cup. This Yabukita variety captures the essence of those still-maturing young buds, known as miru-me, blending their charm with an exquisite softness that makes it one of the finest green teas you can find in Shizuoka.

Mio's sibling green tea, Haruna, also grown in the same district, is harvested just a day or two later. This slight delay allows the leaves to develop a bit more, deepening the flavor but reducing that characteristic softness just a tad.

Mio is wonderfully easy to brew, though we do recommend using a teapot designed for fukuamushi-cha to get the best results. Just remember not to use water that's too hot, or steep it too long, or use too much leaf.

Here's a little tip for brewing: cool your water to about 70 degrees Celsius (160 F) and watch carefully as the tea leaves unfurl to their full extent.

Like all our loose-leaf green teas, Mio is freshly packaged in nitrogen-filled bags to ensure it reaches you in peak condition.

Each package contains 100 grams of this delightful tea, promising many cups of serene, enjoyable moments.

The Shiboridashi teapot's compact size, measuring 10.5 cm wide by 5.3 cm tall and holding approximately 100ml (3.4 ounces), is ideally suited for preparing individual cups of tea. Its unique design foregoes a traditional filter basket, featuring instead a narrow gap between the teapot’s body and the lid, which aids in a smooth pour while effectively retaining larger tea leaves, such as those of gyokuro and light-steamed asamushi sencha. This thoughtful feature makes it especially suited for teas requiring room to expand without escaping into the brew.

Please note, due to its specific features, this teapot is recommended for larger leaf teas and may not be suitable for finer leaf varieties like fukamushi-cha, which could slip through the gap.

Crafted with an eye for both beauty and functionality, each Shiboridashi teapot is a testament to the skilled craftsmanship of Tokoname artisans. Due to the handcrafted nature of these teapots, slight variations from the images shown are to be expected, each piece adding a unique character to your tea brewing rituals.
