Kirishima has long been perceived as an exceptionally mystical, hallowed place – as evidenced by the awe-inspiring Kirishima Shrine originally built in the 6th century in the heart of the "misty island." The famed fog that covers the region results in a constant mild, humid climate that provides optimal conditions for tea cultivation. What's more, the Kirishima terroir is characterised by mineral- and nutrient-rich volcanic soil, which gives the Matcha from this region an exceptional richness and complexity.
Our JAS and EU Organic certified tea farm prides itself on its traditional approach to tea cultivation, making the most out of Kirishima's natural resources, which they are committed to preserve through sustainable, environmentally-friendly farming.
Single Origin
