This tea is grown by the talented Mr. Sakamoto on his small family farm in Kagoshima, Japan. Mr. Sakamoto has been working in the family tea business since he was a little boy and when it was his turn to finally take it over, he decided to transition the farm to be completely organic. This tea is shade grown for at least 3 weeks prior to harvest increasing the vibrancy of the tea and boosting the levels of l-theanine, antioxidants, caffeine, and chlorophyll, thus creating a more savory and sweeter flavor and long-lasting focused energy.
