About Yamaguchi Tea

Farming tea in the Satsuma region of Kagoshima since 1978, the family run Yamaguchi Tea business made the decision in the early 1990s to switch to organic farming. Satsuma is blessed with warm currents and long days of sunshine, supporting a healthy tea crop. But even so, to farm as an organic tea pioneer created numerous challenges. The fruit of the family’s persistence is stable, healthy and tasty teas. Included in this selection on the recommendation of the ceramicist Kaori Sasaki (Nohara-ya), Yamaguchi Tea provide the brews that she makes in her ceramic tea ware.
