Mori-machi Pu-erh
The well-known Pu-erh tea is a fermented tea named after its original production area, Pu-erh City in China. Even if fermented teas are produced in the other areas, they are still called Pu-erh tea because a name “Pu-erh” has come to represent such fermented teas.Our new Mori-machi Pu-erh is Pu-erh tea because it is a fermented tea and has a similar tasting profile, however it is very unique because it is produced in Shizuoka, Japan with a new Sake fermentation method in the clean room. This method produces Gallic acid and Citric acid that non-fermented tea does not have and those components have caused Pu-erh tea to be known for “diet tea”. Read more…

Yuzu Season
Our Exclusive Seasonal Tea, Yuzu Kukicha with Matcha is now in season. It is made with first flush Kukicha, dried Yuzu chips, and a hint of Matcha. Since Yuzu is usually available only in the winter in Japan, we are stocking this tea for only for several months. When our inventory is depleted it won’t be available again until next year.
Yuzu is a traditional Japanese citrus, used almost exclusively for its aromatic rind. Yuzu is about the size of a tangerine and has an aroma that is distinct from lemons, limes, or any other Western citrus fruit. It is rarely eaten as a fruit. In Japanese cuisine its aromatic zest (outer rind) is used to garnish some dishes, and its juice is commonly used as a seasoning, somewhat like the way lemon is used in other cuisines. If you are familiar with Japanese cuisine, you will remember its distinct fragrance.
Our Yuzu Kukicha with Matcha is also available in a gift can.
