Bio teas from Kagoshima
Shading of original tea plants has a long tradition. In the Kagoshima region in southern Japan (with the still active Sakurajima volcano), tea plants in the most suitable estates are covered with special nets (kabuse) Shading only lets 50 % of sunlight through. Growing in halfshade closely resembles the conditions of wild tea plants. Shaded tea develops more active substances and distinctive highly aromatic scent.
Kagoshima has the best conditions for organic growing of high-quality green tea. Ban of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, along with suitable area for tea cultivation and advanced technologies, ensure excellent quality and enjoyment of tea.
