Organic 3 years fermented Bancha tea*

In 1982, the founder began organic farming, without any pesticide neither chemical fertilizer use, in Fujieda.
His son succeeded him and developed tea growing, processing and selling with a complete organic culture. In 2000, the organic law JAS is promulgated and Happy Mukoujimaen obtained the first organic certification for tea in Japan.
Happy Mukoujimaen applies the so-called "Ippon-jitate" mode to his cultures. In general, the distance between each shrub is less than 30 cm, but the spacing in the case of "Ippon-jitate" is more than 50 cm.
Compared to the ordinary tea tree, the trunk thickness is 10 times wider and roots are 4 times longer. Thus, the tea trees develop their vital power, increase the nutritional value and the antioxidant power of tea. "Ippon-jitate" is a method of cultivation that brings out the greatest power of tea and respects the original tea life.
