⛰️ Heritage

Fukamushi sencha emerges from Japan's most honored tea region, where the deep-steaming method—longer than standard steaming—extracts profound umami and silken texture. Chiran's volcanic soil and elevation near Kirishima volcano create mineral-rich conditions that have earned Kagoshima its designation as Japan's No. 1 tea region. The Platinum Edition honors over a century of refinement by KAZAEMON's award-winning farmers.
