2024 Hachiju-hachiya Shincha
We just received our 2024 Hachiju-hachiya Shincha and have started accepting orders with an introductory price this weekend. Hachiju-hachiya means Eighty-Eight Nights. Eighty-Eight Nights Shincha refers to Shincha picked on the 88th day after the first day of Spring in the traditional Japanese calendar. Hachiju-hachiya is a special day in Japanese agriculture because it is considered the time when all plants begin to sprout.
We are also pleased to introduce this tea because it was grown in a very traditional and natural way by one of the oldest farms in Makinohara, Shizuoka. We recently worked with a farmer from this area.
