Camellia sinensis var. sinensis does well in cooler temperatures and at higher elevations, meaning that those plants that are grown at higher elevations tend to have more concentrated flavors, as the cooler temperature slows growth, allowing more depth of flavor. #camelliasinensis #tea #organictea #export #indonesiaexport #indonesiantea

Ever wondered how the exquisite Japanese green tea, Tencha, is made? It's all about mastering specific techniques that elevate its quality and unique taste, making it essential for crafting the perfect Matcha. Growing Tencha Tencha thrives in a controlled environment, particularly in select areas of Japan like Kyoto. Here, the cool, misty climate and well-draining, elevated soil allow the tea plants to develop slowly, enhancing their flavor profile. The Shading Game Approximately 20-30 days before harvest, the tea bushes are covered with straw or black vinyl shades in a process known as "kabuse." This reduces sunlight exposure by 70-90%, increasing chlorophyll production and boosting the leaves’ vibrant green color and rich umami taste. Picking the Leaves Harvesting Tencha is a labor of love, done by hand to select only the finest, youngest leaves. This meticulous process ensures the leaves remain whole and fresh for the next stages of steaming, drying, and grinding. From its careful cultivation to its traditional role in tea ceremonies, the journey of making Tencha is a testament to dedication and quality. Dive into the serene world of Japanese tea with Tencha! #Tencha #JapaneseTea #TeaCulture #MatchaPreparation #TraditionalTea #GreenTea

Looking back at my more unusual professional destinations in the drinks industry, this tiny, hidden away shochu standing bar in Tokyo had a treasure trove of options to try. Shochu is a very traditional spirit in Japan and other countries in Asia. Rice, barley, sweet potatoes and buckwheat are just a few of the ingredients typically used for distillation but many other crops can be used. Like so many spirits in recent years, there has been active experimentation with oak ageing. Given the different distillations, regions and techniques there are over 5000 types to choose from in Japan alone, so I needed expert guidance to navigate the options! But getting real life context on how the final consumer chooses the product, and where they choose to consume it, has helped us gain valuable insight. #oakageing #shochu #internationaladventure
