Shizuoka 蛋奶素選擇 美食體驗

Our wonderful hosts showed us how tea is processed from bush to drink and made us 2 stunning seasonal meals using tea in different forms that we had picked ourselves. A unique experience in the Japanese countryside We appreciated the warm hospitality

This was the most incredible travel experience I have ever had in my life!!! Koichi-san and Kyoko-san are so incredibly kind, and Koichi-san is the PERFECT guide! He brought us to so many interesting places, and we had so many cups of incredible tea. (We lost count after 15 hahaha). Their home is absolutely gorgeous as a beautiful traditional Japanese home but also with modern amenities like modern bathroom and AC. It was a beautiful, and we were so so comfortable. We loved every part of the experience. The best part was their outstanding homemade cooking. I will be having dreams about how good it was!! So artfully plated - incredible aesthetic but also so delicious and unique. Out of everything we did in our 2 week vacation around Japan, this stood out the most, and we are telling all our friends about this experience. Highly, highly recommend!! It doesn't get better than this!!

Koichi and Kyoko are wonderful hosts. Picking, rolling, and roasting our own sencha (green tea) was an absolute highlight of our trip to Japan . Koichi is a wonderful and accommodating tour guide. And Kyoko’s food is out of this world! If you like tea, do this! We’d also recommend going to the tea museum near Kakegawa on your way home.

Incredible and very wholesome day with Akito. Akito is an incredible host taking us through the fields, answering all our questions, preparing for us the most beautiful teas and also a factory visit. I could not recommend it more, I hope to be back when I’m next I. Japan

Very nice tour. The guide was knowledgeable and nice.

Terrific tour! Small family-owned operation. Tea tastings, picked tea, learned about the area, very scenic. Very polite, friendly tour guide.

If I could give this experience 20 stars, I would! Fukaya San was incredibly kind and thorough, and even printed out his presentation in English before I got there so he could explain the process to me in my language. We were able to view the facilities, help with labeling, and make our own soy sauce and Shoyu Koji. The knowledge was fascinating, the structure (both old and new!) were beautiful, the staff was welcoming and the soy sauce is the best! I cannot express how meaningful this experience was for me, and I encourage everyone to book this experience!! Thank you Sakae Shoyu Brewery!

Myself, my daughter and husband spent time with Koichi looking at the tea plantation and learning about tea followed by some tea tasting a trip to the top of a mountain with the most spectacular Jews. We returns to his home where kyoko had prepared some light refreshments for us. We had the most wonderful afternoon and really enjoyed learning about tea and seeing the beautiful views. Koichi and Kyoko were the perfect hosts, beautiful people who did everything the could to make the afternoon enjoyable for us. We would definitely recommend for anyone who loves tea, or for anyone who just loves beautiful scenery. Thankyou Koichi and Kyoto for a wonderful afternoon ☺️

Akito is a very knowledgeable and personable guide. The tea farm and factory tour was educational and fun. We even were joined by his father which was a nice treat. I would highly recommend this tour to any tea lover who wants in depth information and a great tea tasting.

I can't express what an incredible time we had. We visited in October, and despite the cloudy weather, the views from the farm were absolutely breathtaking and something I will never forget. Akito was such an incredible guide! He took the time to answer our questions and share his knowledge about the farm, the factory and tea! He even told us about "tea salad", which is something we now do all the time with out tea leaves 🍃 (But you have to do the tour to learn the secret!) I would do this tour again in a heartbeat, and I urge anyone in the area to take the tour and see all it has to offer!

An elegant fusion of French technique and Shizuoka’s local terroir. The booklet explaining the historical inspiration behind each dish added depth and context. I appreciated how every course reflected the region’s ingredients and identity. The pacing and storytelling were well thought out, making the meal feel cohesive and memorable. A must-try for food lovers interested in history, culture, and fine dining.

A rare behind-the-scenes look at traditional soy sauce production. Walking through the brewery and sampling different soy sauces was very memorable. The host was friendly and knowledgeable, clearly proud of the family history. Including a small food pairing (like tofu or vegetables) would enhance the tasting experience. Still, a great experience for food lovers and fermentation fans.
