Very rare organic Guricha in Japan. It has the unique, mellow taste that is typical to guri tea with a very clear flavor and floral aroma. We hope you will enjoy it. 

Mr. Masayoshi Houmatsu and his father are pioneers of organic guricha and have been working hard to perfect their craft. Initially, it was thought that it would be difficult to produce delicious guricha using organic methods, but through strong family ties, Houmatsu-san pursued his passion to produce an environmentally safe and beautiful tea. That passion is poured into this guricha, resulting in a truly delicious tea, which is produced in small quantities. We thank Houmatsu-san and his father for their efforts and for giving us the opportunity to handle this precious organic green tea.
