Our Japanese tea supplier is a company based in Uji (Kyoto), founded in 1978 but whose history dates back to the 17th century, during the Edo period. The ancestors of the company's president were tea merchants who acted as intermediaries between growers and wholesalers. As this trade disappeared, the President decided to become a wholesaler by buying tea from all over Japan directly from the tea growers. Our supplier's teas are all organic and mainly grown in Uji, but also in the island of Kyushu which has large fields of teas.
