Hundreds of Years of Superior Quality
Consistently cultivating quality tea leaves is but one part; the other is the fine art and science of creating finished green tea. Bringing out highly desirable flavor from raw tea leaves requires a delicate balance of creativity and skill. There are numerous ways of producing green tea, and the tea master must follow precise steps taken in a timely manner. It is believed tea cultivation and production in Shizuoka began during the Kamakura Period (1185-1333). The result of centuries of accumulated blending and processing wisdom and mastery is evident in each new cup of Shizuoka green tea.
ShizuokaTea.com sources the best available Japanese green tea from large, medium and small size processing/packaging companies, and also directly from tea farmers. Our major suppliers collectively have hundreds of years of experience, are highly skilled, operate very clean facilities and are ISO Certified, which is very important in a time when there is concern for food safety. We are in constant contact with the Japanese green tea industry from our year-around staffed buying office in Shizuoka, Japan in an effort to bring our valued customers superior quality products.

Our year-around-staffed buying office located in Shizuoka, Japan, has direct access to the over 38,000 tea farmers, 3000 tea processors and 500 finished tea packagers located in Shizuoka Prefecture and throughout Japan.
