Tea, like many other things, came to Japan from China. One of the legacies of the fusion of Chinese and Japanese culture is kamairicha tea. Kamairicha is a Japanese green tea made using Chinese processing traditions. Traditionally in Japan, green tea is steamed to stop the oxidation process, but in China, leaves are heated in a special pan. The shape of the tea leaves also varies: usually, green tea in Japan has a needle shape, while in China the tea leaves are wavy. This Chinese way of making tea gives the tea a fresh taste and aroma of roasted nuts. Master Osada-san invites us to discover a fusion of Chinese and Japanese flavors and enjoy this rare kind of green tea.

The taste of tea in our cup is determined by the following factors:
Preparation method:

The quality of tea leaves: the quality of tea leaves is determined not only by the master’s work, but also by the following storage conditions. To extend the expiration date, an unopened green tea package can be stored in a refrigerator. After opening the package, it is recommended to store the tea in a sun-proof package or airtight container in a cool place, as far away from moisture and smells as possible.
The quality of water: a cup of tea consists of 99% of water, therefore, its quality is no less important than a tea itself. The most suitable water for the tea is soft and as close as possible to neutral pH, with a low mineral content (50-100 mg/l). Usually, tap water in Lithuania is heavy, therefore, for best possible results, you should choose filtered or spring water. During boiling, water loses oxygen, thus it is recommended to never boil the same water more than once.
The Osada family is one of the leaders in the Japanese organic tea industry. The Osada family not only nurtures their tea fields, but has also brought together more than 30 organic tea farms in Shizuoka Prefecture in the last 30 years. The Osada family buys a farmer’s so-called aracha tea from their fields and small family farms. Tea from different farms is produced separately, allowing for a unique taste and the highest quality to remain. When asked what led him to the establishment of the organic farm, the master Osada-san replied that it was the desire of his family and other farmers of the area to drink the best natural teas, eat natural vegetables and taste the best fresh mountain river water. As the master says, nurturing an organic farm makes a person more caring for the tea plant and helps him to understand it. The whole journey of learning has allowed him to experiment and create the best flavors possible.
