“Takarabako” means “treasure chest” and is the name of the organic tea farmer who produces this Sencha using traditional methods with purely organic resources .

The tea gardens in which the Takarabako organic sencha thrives are located in the picturesque landscape between the two lakes Shinji and Naka-umi in the north of Shimane Province . Lake Shinji is famous for its breathtaking sunsets, which are considered to be one of the "eight beauties of Shimane". It is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, especially waterfowl and the famous Shimane carp. Not only the unique flora and fauna benefit from this special location, but also the quality and aroma of our organic sencha.

For the Takarabako organic Sencha, the sun-ripened leaves are processed in a family business in the small town of Ooba . A special local organic fertilizer , a compost made from wood chips, is used. The strict guidelines of the JONA organic seal guarantee the highest quality and purity .

Tea is an absolutely natural product. The earth, the sun, the water, the air, even the animals and people in the area influence the taste of the drink. This light, floral Sencha invites you on a taste journey to the Japanese seascape. We offer it as a loose tea and in a practical, compostable tea bag .
