Shizuoka: An 800-Year Old Tea-Growing City

Located at the foot of Mt. Fuji, Shizuoka has the ideal climate for growing tea and is the largest tea producer in Japan. Since 1859, the year Yokohama harbor opened for foreign trade, export of Japanese tea has been steadily increasing. Increased demand has resulted in excellent quality control and consistency. Various new blends of tea are constantly being tested to satisfy different tastes throughout the world.

Houjicha (or Hojicha) brews a brownish liquid, but it is still green tea. Houjicha is produced by roasting Bancha or Kukicha over high heat. The result is a savory tea with a refreshing, roasted taste and virtually no bitterness. It contains the lowest level of caffeine of any Japanese green tea.
