Japanese first Organic Matcha Farmer.Use no pesticides, no herbicides, and only use natural organic fertilizers.
The beautiful Ishikawa Matcha farm is located on a mountain at the elevation of 650 meters (2,133 feet) above sea level.
The high elevation is very suitable to produce organic tea because all the insects cannot survive during cold winter.
The matcha leaves are shaded during their last few weeks of growth, which makes tea that has a lot of umami and are not very astringency.
