Kettles - Tetsubin
Handcrafted Nanbu Tekki cast iron kettles for boiling softer and sweeter water

Sencha
Steamed and rolled, packed with catechins, with lots of umami and a rich flavour – the queen of Japanese green tea

Hojicha
High-quality sencha and bancha roasted by experienced tea farmers for an especially full-bodied character and delicately sweet roasted aromas. Warming and low in caffeine

Sannen Bancha
An alkalising and rare green tea which, due to its 3-year growth/storage period, develops special polysaccharides and a mild sweetness. A Yang tea virtually free from caffeine
