We visited our tea bag producer in Ujidawara

In mid-April 2019, we went to Ujidawara, where the cherry trees still remain in bloom.

In Ujidawara, Kyoto, there is a historic green tea factory, Nishide Seichajyo. Nishide Seichajyo is our very important business partner. Nishide Seichajyo produces our KOI series tea bags since 5 years ago.

Not only in Spain, but also in all Europe, our KOI tea bags are very popular.  2 years ago, we launched Koi Wakocha (Japanese black tea) and now these 4 kinds of teas are very popular among Japanese tea lovers.

This time, we had a meeting with Nishide Seichajyo about new products. We are still in April, but we have already talked about Christmas sales. We exchanged some ideas for new products and we are sure that we will be able to prepare attractive products for European market on time.

Atsuko-san of Nishide Seichajyo very kindly guided us the Ujidawara tea plantations by car. When we approached the tea fields, we saw very lovely baby buds!  The small buds are growing healthy. They say that the temperature will increase from now on, and the new leaves will grow up very fast.

Then we climbed up to the plantation where the Nº 1 awarded Kabusecha was born. Nishide Seichajyo kindly gave us this awarded tea as a gift. When we come back to Spain, we will have to do a special tea-tasting of this special Kabusecha.

After meeting, they took us to a special place where cherry blossoms were scattered on the surface of the river.  Ujidawara is a beautiful place with full of nature. We hope that this tea plantation never changes and is passed on to future generations forever.
