About the Garden

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)

The women of Kiroku Tea Garden began experimenting with a unique roasting of their tencha tea leaves a few years ago (in cooperation with their roasting partner in Wazuka Village), and created this unique roast—a deep, double-roasting of their single cultivar okumidori spring tencha leaves that creates a sweetness in the tea when steeped.

\n

Tencha is the green tea leaf used to make matcha, and okumidori cultivar spring tencha is highly sought after for matcha. Most farmers would think it a waste to roast these leaves, but in the pursuit of innovation in tea, the Hori family sets aside a small amount each year for creating this sweet roast.

About the Garden

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication.

A light bodied shaded green tea with zero astringency, and notes of sweet matcha. Tencha is the leaf used to grind into matcha, but resembles the delicacy of a white tea when steeped.

\n

The Saemidori cultivar is a cultivar originating from the Kyushu region, a hybrid of Yabukita and Asatsuyu cultivars. It has received much praise for its vibrant green color and sweet flavor as a gyokuro, and is light and sweet as a tencha!

About the Garden

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)

\n

Tencha farmers from Wazuka, Kyoto—sisters Ui and Megumi Hori, and their mother—bring you a small batch matcha made from a cultivar called Sayama Kaori. As its' name implies, this cultivar comes from the Sayama tea region, which encompasses Saitama prefecture and a small area of northwestern Tokyo. While the cultivar was developed for sencha production, the women at Kiroku Tea Garden bring you a matcha from this rare cultivar. 

\n

Yunomi Evaluation - 47/100

\n

Based on our own tasting, this product has the following profile - created with 2g of matcha, 100 ml of water, 70C degrees. However, tastings are not conducted side by side, and there are many factors that may affect the quality you yourself taste: age of the matcha after grinding, different water profiles, ambient temperature, preparation styles, etc. Please use this profile as a simple reference.

A light bodied shaded green tea with zero astringency, and notes of sweet matcha. Tencha is the leaf used to grind into matcha, but resembles the delicacy of a white tea when steeped.

\n

The Asanoka cultivar is a relatively new cultivar that creates a creamy taste as matcha.

About the Garden

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)

Tencha farmers from the famous tea producing region; Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture—Hori-san and her daughter (unfortunately, our friend, daughter Megumi, passed away in 2023)—bring you an ultra small batch matcha made from a the Saemidori cultivar. This cultivar, known for its bright green color (in fact, saemidori means \"clear green\" in Japanese) was first cross-bred in 1969 between Asatsuyu, the \"natural gyokuro\" for its rich umami flavors, and the popular Yabukita which balances flavor with great crop yield and resistance to disease. The Saemidori cultivar is becoming more familiar and liked by Japanese tea lovers. Please enjoy its sweet flavor as a matcha!

Tencha farmers from the famous tea producing region; Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture—Hori-san and her daughter (unfortunately, our friend, daughter Megumi, passed away in 2023)—bring you an ultra small batch matcha made from a the Saemidori cultivar. This cultivar, known for its bright green color (in fact, saemidori means \"clear green\" in Japanese) was first cross-bred in 1969 between Asatsuyu, the \"natural gyokuro\" for its rich umami flavors, and the popular Yabukita which balances flavor with great crop yield and resistance to disease. The Saemidori cultivar is becoming more familiar and liked by Japanese tea lovers. Please enjoy its sweet flavor as a matcha!

About the Garden
\n

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)

\n

Sayama Kaori - the \"aroma of Sayama\", a region north of Tokyo (Saitama Prefecture) is a cultivar known for its hardiness and large leaves resulting in higher yield than normal. It tends to be on the more astringent side in comparison with sweeter cultivars, but retains this when shaded for an umami rich tea that also retains its grassiness.

A light bodied shaded green tea with zero astringency, and notes of sweet matcha. Tencha is the leaf used to grind into matcha, but resembles the delicacy of a white tea when steeped.

\n

Sayama Kaori - the \"aroma of Sayama\", a region north of Tokyo (Saitama Prefecture) is a cultivar known for its hardiness and large leaves resulting in higher yield than normal. It tends to be on the more astringent side in comparison with sweeter cultivars, but retains this when shaded for an umami rich tea that also retains its grassiness.

About the Garden

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)

Tencha farmers from Wazuka Village, Kyoto—Hori-san and her daughter (unfortunately, our friend, daughter Megumi, passed away in 2023)—bring you a small batch (only a few dozen kg harvested) matcha made from Okumidori, a cultivar known for it's deep, dark green color, and delicate flavor profile. While the cultivar was developed to make sencha, now it is becoming common to see a Okumidori cultivar based matcha or gyokuro. It is often the case that this cultivar is blended with another/other cultivar(s). But the Kiroku Tea Garden bring you a single cultivar Okumidori matcha for you to try!

Tencha farmers from Wazuka Village, Kyoto—Hori-san and her daughter (unfortunately, our friend, daughter Megumi, passed away in 2023)—bring you a small batch (only a few dozen kg harvested) matcha made from Okumidori, a cultivar known for it's deep, dark green color, and delicate flavor profile. While the cultivar was developed to make sencha, now it is becoming common to see a Okumidori cultivar based matcha or gyokuro. It is often the case that this cultivar is blended with another/other cultivar(s). But the Kiroku Tea Garden bring you a single cultivar Okumidori matcha for you to try!

About the Garden

\n

The 4th generation Kiroku Tea Garden is in the heart of Wazuka, Kyoto prefecture, an area whose mountain tea fields and undulating terraced slopes thick with fog make perfect tea-growing conditions. Founded nearly 100 years ago, before cars and farming machinery were available, their mountain fields were cleared by hand by the Great-Grandfather of sisters Megumi and Ui Hori.

\n

Today, with their mother, the sisters find themselves in the unusual position of being a farm entirely owned and operated by women. After the passing of their father, the three women took over the running of the farm to continue their family’s legacy, one that began in these fields all those years ago. In the male-dominated tea agriculture and production industry, their efforts are a challenge to the status quo. At Yunomi, we are proud to support their dedication. To learn more about the Kiroku Tea Garden, please check out our interview with Ui Hori (posted April 2021)
