Hasegawa-Ei Seichajyo, which operates "Chaho Yutoha," is a tencha tea farm that has been in business since the Edo period. We persist in tea cultivation using Uji's traditional “shaded cultivation” and “naturally managed tea farm” methods, which have become rare today. The tea we produce is tencha, the raw material for the finest matcha, grown in the rich soils of Rokujizo, Kohata in Uji, Kyoto. Carefully crafted from the soil in our tea farms, we bring you products prepared in our own tea factory, spanning six generations.
