Single-Source Origin Japanese Teas

Why Single-Source Origin Matters

In an industry where most teas are blended from multiple farms and regions, single-source origin is rare - and for good reason. It requires an unwavering commitment to quality and complete transparency about where your tea comes from. Every leaf in this collection is grown, harvested, and processed at one family-owned estate in Sayama, Japan, where 17 generations of tea artisans have perfected their craft over 400 years. This singular focus creates something extraordinary: consistency you can taste. The unique terroir of Sayama: its volcanic soil, mountain mist, and temperate climate; imparts a distinctive character to every harvest. When you choose single-source, you're not just getting premium Japanese green tea; you're experiencing the pure expression of a specific place, cultivated by hands that know every corner of the land. Our commitment to single-source origin means complete traceability. We know the soil that nourished these leaves, the artisans who tended them, and the exact moment they were harvested. This is tea with a story you can trust. No mystery origins, no blending to mask inconsistency. Just the authentic taste of Sayama, in every cup.
