This organic tea, picked and processed a day after a full moon this spring, is made by a tour guide-turned-tea grower in Kanagawa. He used to organize tour to India and Sri Lanka for tea people including tea shop owners. Now, he grows green and black by himself using tons of knowledge and experiments through his previous job.
Like the Darjeeling production, this is made by hard wither and light oxidation, which brings out very flowery and green note. A frog on the package shows that this farm is sustainable enough even for frogs to enjoy living there. Happy tea for us and nature.
