Visiting Japans Largest Tea Region Shizuoka!

Kikugawa is known for it’s green tea 🍵 - with humid summers and mild winters. Mount Fuji 🗻 exists within Shizuoka, and it’s peak overlooks many of Shizuoka’s tea fields. Shizuoka is the largest tea-producing Prefecture in Japan 🇯🇵 accounting for over 40% of Japan’s annual tea production. Tea first arrived here from China 🇨🇳 in 1241 via the monk Shoichi Kokushi who planted seeds. On my first day here in the prefecture (ever!) I was captivated by the shrines ⛩️, tea bushes, and pleasant weather. 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ooika.co/ 🍵 Experience fresh-ground, single-cultivar Match: https://ooika.co/ 🎇 About my YouTube Channel. Ooika authentically stone-mill Japan’s most rare and celebrated single-cultivar Matcha, here in the United States. I made this channel so to share my love and passion of single-cultivar, terroir-specific tea.
