The experience was wonderful! There were two of us and the visit with Akito was very pleasant and informative. Akito is a kind and sociable person. He told us his story while traveling by car to the farm and, once we arrived, he explained to us how the cultivation and harvesting of tea leaves works. The view of the ordered rows along the mountain slope is amazing! From here you can also enjoy the view of Shizuoka. We had the tea tasting directly inside the plantation. It was very interesting to learn about new flavors and listen to Akito's explanations on how the taste of tea varies with different water temperatures. In the factory Akito replicated the drying process with a miniature machine and we had another tasting combined with mochi that enhanced the tea flavor. Then we visited the production area where he explained to us how the traditional hand process is replicated with machinery. Before saying goodbye we purchased some tea they produced. We recommend this experience to all people who want to discover the art and knowledge behind a cup of sencha.

This tour was absolutely amazing! The view of Shizuoka from the tea farm was breathtaking, and it goes without saying that the tea farm itself was beautiful. Moreover, not only was Akito very accommodating, but also extremely knowledgeable on the tea; from the industry and production, to its culture and current trends. The things I learned from Akito has greatly enhanced my tea drinking experience. Also, highly recommend picking up some of the sencha and kukicha at the tea factory.

Fantastic tour of the tea industry and surrounds in Shizuoka. This is definitely a full day event - I would recommend leaving time after to explore Shizuoka before you head off. The tour was great, hosted by the amazing Akito - who ensured we had a great day travelling through some amazing tea farms, a tea factory, and various Shizuoka stores and points of interest. We loved learning about the process of making the wide range of Japanese teas and experiencing the widely varying flavour profiles of each. Great for those interested in food or Japanese culture or just for a truly unique day out!

Shizuoka Tea Tour

Considering that Shizuoka produces 40% of green tea in Japan, it’s no surprise that Japanese green tea is the most famous and prized product hailing from the Shizuoka Prefecture. Nestled between Tokyo and Nagoya, beautiful landscapes full of green tea fields are found glowing throughout the Shizuoka region. Located at the base of Mount Fuji, Shizuoka is a great place to make matcha for its clean, quality waters, plus plenty of room to grow quality tea leaves in the vast and fertile tea fields. Discover the rural landscapes of the Shizuoka region as you learn all about green tea during an immersive Shizuoka tea tour. Escape into the countryside, take a break from city life and experience what it's like from harvest to production to the first sip! During a Shizuoka tea tour, you could even find yourself experiencing a tranquil Japanese tea ceremony and learn how to prepare matcha green tea for yourself. Or, wander through the tea fields, visit a production factory, and enjoy tasting locally-made green tea with a tea-themed lunch. As an easy day trip from Tokyo, there’s no better place to try Japanese tea than Shizuoka.
