Deep steamed tea from the Makinohara Plateau in Shizuoka Prefecture. [Tea from Makinohara Plateau] The Makinohara Plateau has long sunlight hours, allowing thick and nutrient-rich tea leaves to grow. By steaming these leaves for a long time, the tannin (bitterness) content is reduced, and the amino acid theanine (sweetness) increases, resulting in a mellow tea. The leaves become fine, but they feature a beautiful deep green color, mellow sweetness, and rich flavor. [Arahataen's Deep Steamed Tea] Deep steaming method that utilizes high-quality tea leaves: Arahataen's tea is made using a deep steaming method that steams the leaves three to four times longer than regular sencha. [Commitment to Soil] Arahataen believes that "delicious tea can only be made from thick, dark green leaves picked from strong tea trees," and is dedicated to soil preparation for tea cultivation. [Natural Regenerative Agriculture Rice Husk Compost] Every autumn, rice husks, rice bran, and rapeseed cake are fermented with beneficial soil microorganisms to create rice husk compost. This flavorful compost is evenly spread across vast fields, promoting the growth of microorganisms in the soil, enriching it, and enhancing its fertility through natural regenerative agriculture. [World Agricultural Heritage Shizuoka's Tea Grassland Method] Tea grasslands are semi-natural grasslands where grasses like bamboo grass and pampas grass are cut and used as organic matter in tea gardens. This is a common sight in Shizuoka Prefecture. The method of laying grass cut from tea grasslands in tea gardens produces higher quality tea. This practice coexists with nature without disrupting its balance. *Shizuoka's tea grassland method was recognized as a World Agricultural Heritage by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) on May 30, 2013.
