Organic Kamairicha

Authentic organic Kamairicha (not to be confused, or even really compared, with Tamaryokucha, also known as Guricha, a steamed green tea from Kyushu) is an incredibly rare, extremely traditional, pan-fired green tea that is predominantly cultivated on small-scale family farms in remote areas of Kyushu Island and is held in high esteem by knowledgeable tea connoisseurs. The selection of organic Kamairicha we present here are genuine Kamairicha coming from the famed Gokase Town in the Nishiusuki District of Miyazaki known for produces the highest of quality kamairicha. The families we have formed relationships with there are long established Kamairicha growers that have maintained what was handed down to them including the lush generation-old organic fertile soils, cultivation methods, varietals, and various pan firing methods. Only a few families in the area still possess the expertise to continue to produce this specialized tea organically like their forefathers did, so it's a real pleasure to work directly with them and be able to offer some of their most prized and rare organic Kamairicha that are seldom available on the market!
