‘Sayama-kaori’ was developed in 1971 by Saitama Tea Research Institute.  The flavor is strong in bitterness and astringency, but it tastes fresh. As it tastes like typical Japanese tea, ‘Sayamakaori’ is loved by those who drink Japanese tea habitually.

 

Mr. Masahiro Okutomi, the young owner of this tea farm, has actively entered Japanese tea competitions held overseas and he won the gold in matcha category at Ce Bon Rue Japon 2018, in France, and also he won the gold medal at Great Green Tea 2013 Competition in England.

 

‘Sayama-kaori’ goes very well not only with Japanese sweets, but it also goes well with cake and marron glace. As an after-meal beverage, it will enhance your satisfaction at your meal.
