My favorite day of my week-long trip in Japan! Koichi was so kind and accommodating and he really made this day special for us. The location is stunning. We were in early April and the Cherry Blossoms were peak and the weather was perfect. He served us tea and a light meal and drove us around the community. It was just the experience that I was looking for to get a taste of rural life in Japan and see this remarkable region where green tea is grown. Thank you so much!!

Our tea experience was nothing short of incredible! Akito was incredibly kind and so knowledgeable about all of the teas, answering all of our questions, of which we had many! We would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone with an interest in tea. We were shown around the tea farm and factory and learnt a lot. Akito gave this experience a real personal touch and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves,
