PREORDER available late May 🍵 2026 #0839.S5 Murakami Tea Garden: Superior Mountain-Grown Zairai Sencha from Yoshiwara, Shizuoka 煎茶 在来種 by Murakami Tea Garden | Teatico
Overview
Farm Introduction According to Hiroki Murakami, who will become the farm's 4th generation master, the family doesn't know exactly when they started farming tea, though his great-grandfather was the one who built their first processing factory in the late 19th century. Based in the Yoshiwara district, a mountainous region famous for its sea of clouds within the municipality of Shizuoka City, the family produces about 2 tons of tea altogether per year (first and second flushes). Their leaves are mostly processed as a near-fukamushi (deep steamed), a steaming technique that creates a tea that has fukashimicha's deep, opaque green color and sweetness, but while also retaining much of the leaf's shape.
