Discover Shizuoka Matcha: The Heart of Japan’s Green Tea Heritage
Nestled between Mount Fuji and the Pacific Ocean, Shizuoka Prefecture is one of Japan’s most celebrated tea-growing regions. Known for its pristine air, mineral-rich soil, and ideal climate, Shizuoka produces some of the finest Japanese matcha and green tea in the world.
The Legacy of Shizuoka Tea
With over 800 years of tea cultivation history, Shizuoka is the birthplace of Japan’s green tea culture. Farmers here use traditional shade-growing methods and meticulous hand-picking to produce premium matcha powder that’s vibrant in colour, smooth in texture, and rich in umami flavour.
