Hiroki Matsumoto, the young farmer at Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden is always challenging himself to create unique and unusual teas. His inspiration comes from the fact that many tea farmers around him in Shizuoka (perhaps, the best known prefecture for tea in Japan) are already making very good and high quality tea. While the focus of the generations before him was to sell cultivated tea to wholesalers, during his time as a tea farmer, Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden began to make their own products, which allowed Matsumoto-san to directly interact with customers (i.e., the people who drink his tea!). These interactions shifted something in him as began thinking about creating his own style of tea, one which wasn’t limited by the labels placed as \"Shizuoka-cha\" or \"Shimada-cha\".
\n
The peach wood smoked black tea is just one of Matsumoto-san’s intriguing smoked black teas. In fact, because at Yunomi, we have a wide selection of his smoked black teas, you may want to try a few flavors to compare across his teas! Matsumoto-san smokes his black teas using the wood from Japanese whisky barrels and utilises wood that comes from the award winning Ichiro Distillery in Chichibu. This smoked tea can be enjoyed cold or hot and can be a great compliment to nuts and/or chocolate. One could also use the tea leaves and their strong flavor as condiment or seasoning. Please enjoy in many creative ways!
\n
Please note that all aspects of the production at Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden adhere to the environmental conservation cultivation method world renown as GIAHS (i.e., Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System). Therefore, tea bushes are cultivated in the traditional Japanese chagusaba method where grass is used as mulch to protect and flavor the tea leaves. No flavorings and additives have been used. Matsumoto-san is the Silver Medal Winner of the 2014 International Tea Tasting Competition.

To make this premium gyokuro, a shelf is built over the tea bushes and straw woven with straw is spread over the entire tea fields. This method is considered one of the traditional shading methods to make gyokuro and is quite rare these days! After being shaded for 20 days, the tea leaves are harvested. By shading for a long period of time (which is a typical process to make gyokuro), the growth of catechin which creates the bitter taste in tea is suppressed and the umami and richness will be emphasized.
\n
To steep this tea, prepare your hot water (or cool off to) 50 ℃ so that the tea leaves are soaked and wait for 2 minutes. Please enjoy the traditional taste and aroma that spreads in your mouth.

To make this premium gyokuro, a shelf is built over the tea bushes and straw woven with straw is spread over the entire tea fields. This method is considered one of the traditional shading methods to make gyokuro and is quite rare these days! After being shaded for 20 days, the tea leaves are harvested. By shading for a long period of time (which is a typical process to make gyokuro), the growth of catechin which creates the bitter taste in tea is suppressed and the umami and richness will be emphasized.
\n
To steep this tea, prepare your hot water (or cool off to) 50 ℃ so that the tea leaves are soaked and wait for 2 minutes. Please enjoy the traditional taste and aroma that spreads in your mouth.

"},{"id":8244681285,"title":"#0364.S5 Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden: Apple Wood Smoked Black Tea 燻製紅茶 リンゴ","handle":"kaneroku-matsumoto-tea-garden-apple-wood-smoked-black-tea","description":"
Hiroki Matsumoto, the young farmer at Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden is always challenging himself to create unique and unusual teas. His inspiration comes from the fact that many tea farmers around him in Shizuoka (perhaps, the best known prefecture for tea in Japan) are already making very good and high quality tea. While the focus of the generations before him was to sell cultivated tea to wholesalers, during his time as a tea farmer, Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden began to make their own products, which allowed Matsumoto-san to directly interact with customers (i.e., the people who drink his tea!). These interactions shifted something in him as began thinking about creating his own style of tea, one which wasn’t limited by the labels placed as \"Shizuoka-cha\" or \"Shimada-cha\".
\n
The apple wood smoked black tea is just one of Matsumoto-san’s unique teas. Matsumoto-san has been experimenting with other woods such as sakura (cherry blossom), yuzu, pine, etc, you may want to compare across his smoked black teas! This innovative black tea has been smoked for 8 hours with apple wood. Although apple wood may sound mellow and the infusion looks rather transparent, this tea is actually quite powerful (with respect to smokiness) with an aroma that is rich and profound. One may pleasantly come across hints of vanilla and it can also be enjoyed with some milk.

Hiroki Matsumoto, the young farmer at Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden is always challenging himself to create unique and unusual teas. His inspiration comes from the fact that many tea farmers around him in Shizuoka (perhaps, the best known prefecture for tea in Japan) are already making very good and high quality tea. While the focus of the generations before him was to sell cultivated tea to wholesalers, during his time as a tea farmer, Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden began to make their own products, which allowed Matsumoto-san to directly interact with customers (i.e., the people who drink his tea!). These interactions shifted something in him as began thinking about creating his own style of tea, one which wasn’t limited by the labels placed as \"Shizuoka-cha\" or \"Shimada-cha\".
\n
The apple wood smoked black tea is just one of Matsumoto-san’s unique teas. Matsumoto-san has been experimenting with other woods such as sakura (cherry blossom), yuzu, pine, etc, you may want to compare across his smoked black teas! This innovative black tea has been smoked for 8 hours with apple wood. Although apple wood may sound mellow and the infusion looks rather transparent, this tea is actually quite powerful (with respect to smokiness) with an aroma that is rich and profound. One may pleasantly come across hints of vanilla and it can also be enjoyed with some milk.

Steeping recommendation
\n
Tea: 2 tsp of petals. Time: 5 min. Water: 90C/195F, 100 ml. The initial color extracted from the petals will be blue and the liquor will gradually transform into violet, then finally a rosy red.
\n
2 tsp of petals is about 0.3-0.5 grams. So a 10-gram bag should yield around 20-30 cups of 100 ml.

Unrefined tencha (碾茶) tea leaves (the raw material used for matcha) is roasted to create a light-bodied roasted green tea. Tencha differs from other Japanese green teas in that it is shaded for about 4 weeks before harvest and is not rolled during processing; after steaming it is dried in a special tencha oven.
The Azuma family specializes in growing tencha, the leaves used for creating matcha, in addition to other types of green, black, and oolong teas. In the process of certifying tea fields as organic, they are shifting cultivation of their fields to pesticide free practices.
\n
Based in Wazuka, Kyoto, Japan, the family has also recently built their own matcha grinding factory becoming fully vertically integrated as a producer.

About the Farm
\n
Chiyonoen Tea Farm is a small tea garden operated by husband and wife farmers Masashi and Eri Harashima deep in the mountains of Yabe Village, Fukuoka, Japan. The 3rd generation farm specializes in high grade mountain-grown sencha and gyokuro. Established by his grandfather and the farm's namesake, Chiyokichi.
Roasted Tencha Stems, in Japanese: Tenbone Houjicha(てん骨ほうじ茶) is made from the branch stems of tencha (てん茶) while the leaf stems and veins are roasted into Obubu's Tsugumi Hojicha. Tencha are the unrolled tea leaves used to make matcha tea powder. Because you drink the entire leaf when you drink matcha, the leaves used for matcha tea powder need to be as sweet as possible. So when Tencha is created, Akky covers the tea plants for up to four weeks to reduce the amount of catechin (which creates bitterness) as much as possible.
\n
In the process of making matcha, the dried, unrolled tencha tea leaves are then separated into two groups, soft and tough parts. The tough parts are the stems and veins and they are called tenbone (tencha no hone, the bones of tencha).
\n
Akky has taken these bones of the tencha and lightly roasted them to produce a mild yet luxurious flavor. Enjoy the elegance of Tenbone Houjicha and all its sweetness and aroma!

Roasted Tencha Stems (Tenbone Houjicha)
\n
Roasted Tencha Stems, in Japanese: Tenbone Houjicha(てん骨ほうじ茶) is made from the branch stems of tencha (てん茶) while the leaf stems and veins are roasted into Obubu's Tsugumi Hojicha. Tencha are the unrolled tea leaves used to make matcha tea powder. Because you drink the entire leaf when you drink matcha, the leaves used for matcha tea powder need to be as sweet as possible. So when Tencha is created, Akky covers the tea plants for up to four weeks to reduce the amount of catechin (which creates bitterness) as much as possible.
\n
In the process of making matcha, the dried, unrolled tencha tea leaves are then separated into two groups, soft and tough parts. The tough parts are the stems and veins and they are called tenbone (tencha no hone, the bones of tencha).
\n
Akky has taken these bones of the tencha and lightly roasted them to produce a mild yet luxurious flavor. Enjoy the elegance of Tenbone Houjicha and all its sweetness and aroma!

New tea farmer Yancy Lever revived abandoned yabukita tea fields that had been growing wildly for a couple of years, and began harvesting from it in 2019 under the direction of a veteran farmer. Processing occurs at his teacher's factory, and he is learning to process tea as well. Yancy's standard sencha is an everyday tea that also has the stems included.

Yancy Lever is an American farming tea, yuzu citrus, soba (buckwheat) and other vegetables in the beautiful mountains of Otoyo Village, Kochi, and neighboring Aruse Village, Tokushima, Japan. He began tea farming just 2 years ago, after falling in love with and marrying his wife Azusa who is from Otoyo Village.
\n
Otoyo Village is more well known for its goishicha tea, but the same tea fields also produce sencha, so Yancy is starting his journey as a tea farmer with Japan's standard tea.

New tea farmer Yancy Lever revived abandoned yabukita tea fields that had been growing wildly for a couple of years, and began harvesting from it in 2019 under the direction of a veteran farmer. Processing occurs at his teacher's factory, and he is learning to process tea as well. Yancy's standard sencha is an everyday tea that also has the stems included.
\n
\n
\nIngredients: Green Tea
\n
\nHarvest: Spring
\n
\nCultivar: Yabukita
\n
\nRegion: Aruse Village, Tokushima (The field is 200 meters from the border of Kochi where Yancy lives.)
\n
\nProcessing: Yamashiro Chagyo Kumiai, Yamashiro Village, Miyoshi City, Tokushima Prefecture
Yancy Lever is an American farming tea, yuzu citrus, soba (buckwheat) and other vegetables in the beautiful mountains of Otoyo Village, Kochi, and neighboring Aruse Village, Tokushima, Japan. He began tea farming just 2 years ago, after falling in love with and marrying his wife Azusa who is from Otoyo Village.
\n
Otoyo Village is more well known for its goishicha tea, but the same tea fields also produce sencha, so Yancy is starting his journey as a tea farmer with Japan's standard tea.
Hiroki Matsumoto, the young farmer at Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden is always challenging himself to create unique and unusual teas. His inspiration comes from the fact that many tea farmers around him in Shizuoka (perhaps, the best known prefecture for tea in Japan) are already making very good and high quality tea. While the focus of the generations before him was to sell cultivated tea to wholesalers, during his time as a tea farmer, Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden began to make their own products, which allowed Matsumoto-san to directly interact with customers (i.e., the people who drink his tea!). These interactions shifted something in him as began thinking about creating his own style of tea, one which wasn’t limited by the labels placed as \"Shizuoka-cha\" or \"Shimada-cha\".
\n
A black tea for the fig lovers out there, this fig wood smoked black tea is just one of Matsumoto-san’s innovative smoked teas. At Yunomi, we have a wide selection of Matsumoto-san's smoked black teas; therefore, you may want to try a few flavors to compare across his fascinating tea selection! Matsumoto-san smokes his black teas using the wood from Japanese whisky barrels and utilises wood that comes from the award winning Ichiro Distillery in Chichibu. This smoked tea can be enjoyed cold or hot and can be a great compliment to nuts and/or chocolate. One could also use the tea leaves and their strong flavor as condiment or seasoning. Please enjoy in many creative ways!
\n
Please note that all aspects of the production at Kaneroku Matsumoto Tea Garden adhere to the environmental conservation cultivation method world renown as GIAHS (i.e., Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System). Therefore, tea bushes are cultivated in the traditional Japanese chagusaba method where grass is used as mulch to protect and flavor the tea leaves. No flavorings and additives have been used. Matsumoto-san is the Silver Medal Winner of the 2014 International Tea Tasting Competition.

Yet another shincha from Shimizu-san’s own nogi-en (and others), the Shourai blend is unique because it comes from their 八十八夜 (hachijyu-hachiya) harvest. According to the traditional Japanese lunar calendar, hachijyu-hachiya signifies the 88th night after the start of spring and is also used to mark the start of shincha harvesting.
\n
The Shourai blend is made from the aracha (unrefined tea in which stems and leaf fannings are not filtered out) of three types of cultivars: fukumidori (plays central role), yumewakaba, and yabukita.
\n
After the tea is harvested, it goes through a process of withering in which the tea leaves are first sun dried, then dried in the shade for about half a day to create the aroma. Each cultivar is hand-fired separately using a hoiro (焙炉 a special table with thick washi paper surface that is heated from the bottom), then blended to complete the Shourai blend. This tea was served to the Japanese emperor and empress to accompany their dessert at Koryo Shrine on September 20, 2017.
\n
\n
Processing
\n\n
Withering in the sun. After 30 minutes the leaf starts to blacken with enzymatic oxidization creating a floral aroma.
\n
Sencha processing
\n
Finishing - sorting out stems and fannings, including green-roasting using an old-style drying machine. The hot air used in to dry out the unrefined tea for long-term storage also adds a little toastiness to the fruity floral aroma.
3rd steeping: 85C (185F), 30 sec - Enjoy the refreshing taste and aroma

Yet another shincha from Shimizu-san’s own nogi-en (and others), the Shourai blend is unique because it comes from their 八十八夜 (hachijyu-hachiya) harvest. According to the traditional Japanese lunar calendar, hachijyu-hachiya signifies the 88th night after the start of spring and is also used to mark the start of shincha harvesting.
\n
The Shourai blend is made from the aracha (unrefined tea in which stems and leaf fannings are not filtered out) of three types of cultivars: fukumidori (plays central role), yumewakaba, and yabukita.
\n
After the tea is harvested, it goes through a process of withering in which the tea leaves are first sun dried, then dried in the shade for about half a day to create the aroma. Each cultivar is hand-fired separately using a hoiro (焙炉 a special table with thick washi paper surface that is heated from the bottom), then blended to complete the Shourai blend. This tea was served to the Japanese emperor and empress to accompany their dessert at Koryo Shrine on September 20, 2017.
\n
\n
Processing
\n\n
Withering in the sun. After 30 minutes the leaf starts to blacken with enzymatic oxidization creating a floral aroma.
\n
Sencha processing
\n
Finishing - sorting out stems and fannings, including green-roasting using an old-style drying machine. The hot air used in to dry out the unrefined tea for long-term storage also adds a little toastiness to the fruity floral aroma.
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.
\n
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).
\n
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.
\nProduction capacity: About 1300 kg per year. The family only harvests the spring first flush harvest.

Farm Introduction
\n
\n
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.
\n
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).
\n
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.
The Harashima family's Hanatsumi sencha comes from the first picking of the year in April, resulting in an extra delicate sencha. Sold as Shincha in May and June. With this top-quality sencha, one will taste the rich deep taste and high aroma of sencha which sprouted slowly over time being surrounded by the beautiful mountains of the village of Yabe (Yame, Fukuoka Prefecture). The climate of the semi-high cold region at an altitude of 600m creates a deep and fragrant taste. Please enjoy the breath of the very first picked small sprouts. This sencha can also be a perfect gift for that special someone...
\n
Please enjoy across multiple steeps. Because these tea leaves are high quality, after you have finished drinking the tea, the Harashima family recommends repurposing the tea leaves in your fried rice, miso soup, or however you fancy!

Steeping Notes
\n
The steeping guidelines below are from Chiyonoen. For more steeping tips including cold steeping and ice steeping, please see Yunomi's steeping guides.
Note about high quality sencha: In general, this sencha is low in shibumi (bitterness) however, if you steep with hot water below 70 °C, you will be able to hold down the shibumi even more. If you are one who prefers to taste a bit more shibumi in your tea as well as the nice aroma, please utilize hot water of about 80° C. \n
\n

\n
\n
Tips for a Pleasant Tea Drinking Experience
\n
\n
Pour boiling water into a teacup or cup, leave it for about 2 minutes to cool around 70-80° C, and then transfer it to a kyusu (Japanese tea pot). Steep for 60 to 90 seconds and it is ready to drink! Pour up to the last drop as the last drops are where the umami resides.
\n
From the 2nd steep, pour the hot water at a higher temperature than the 1st steep and steep for a shorter duration.
\n
Please enjoy the tea up to the third steep.

The Harashima family's Hanatsumi sencha comes from the first picking of the year in April, resulting in an extra delicate sencha. Sold as Shincha in May and June. With this top-quality sencha, one will taste the rich deep taste and high aroma of sencha which sprouted slowly over time being surrounded by the beautiful mountains of the village of Yabe (Yame, Fukuoka Prefecture). The climate of the semi-high cold region at an altitude of 600m creates a deep and fragrant taste. Please enjoy the breath of the very first picked small sprouts. This sencha can also be a perfect gift for that special someone...
\n
Please enjoy across multiple steeps. Because these tea leaves are high quality, after you have finished drinking the tea, the Harashima family recommends repurposing the tea leaves in your fried rice, miso soup, or however you fancy!

Steeping Notes
\n
The steeping guidelines below are from Chiyonoen. For more steeping tips including cold steeping and ice steeping, please see Yunomi's steeping guides.
Note about high quality sencha: In general, this sencha is low in shibumi (bitterness) however, if you steep with hot water below 70 °C, you will be able to hold down the shibumi even more. If you are one who prefers to taste a bit more shibumi in your tea as well as the nice aroma, please utilize hot water of about 80° C. \n

Tips for a Pleasant Tea Drinking Experience
\n
\n
Pour boiling water into a teacup or cup, leave it for about 2 minutes to cool around 70-80° C, and then transfer it to a kyusu (Japanese tea pot). Steep for 60 to 90 seconds and it is ready to drink! Pour up to the last drop as the last drops are where the umami resides.
\n
From the 2nd steep, pour the hot water at a higher temperature than the 1st steep and steep for a shorter duration.
\n
Please enjoy the tea up to the third steep.
