Sencha tea

Sencha tea

made by Mr.Saito, 2014

at Nishimata, Shizuoka

I like Saito's sencha tea

Although Mr.Saito is the tea master of conventional sencha tea,

I felt not heavy

Mr.Saito think the soil of tea estate

and he love his tea

He can not sell his tea,

he can not exchange his tea for money

So, I bought the tea from his wife

She think around of tea estate

When I visited the tea estate, she was always in tea farm

She take care of thier childrens and grand mother

and manages house, the tea estate and their area

but, she is behind he

I know that she support his tea

And each tea farm's wives support thier area, Nishimata

thank you for all ♥

Izumi oolong tea

tea leaves are Izumi

made by Mr.Niroku

Making black tea

I joined to make black tea

Tea leaves were benifuuki

Left; rolling time 1hr, fermentation in the chamber

Center; rolling time 1.5hr, fermentation in the chamber

Right; rolling time 1.5hr, fermentation out of the chamber

at National Agriculture and Food Research Organization

Kanaya, Shizuoka

We picked up tea leaves by hands

 

Witherting

Tea leaves lie thin on the shelfs

The end of witherting

 Water content reduced 47%

Rolling time was 1hr or 1.5hr

The end of rolling

Fermentation at the chamber or out of the chamber

The end of fermantation

And dried

I felt all tea floral and soft
Rolling time 1.5hr were bitter
while 1hr was little greenish
I like 1hr as floral

Fermentatio in the chamber or out of the chamber
I like out of the chamber
I felt more soft and warm

I think that witherting was too hard ??
Core water can not drain ??

These are the spring tea

Thank you for all ♥
