Hadaseicha is from Suzuka, Mie, Japan. Famous place for international racing circuit. Our business is based on family business by Shigenari & Misako Hada. Naoki is first son and living silicon valley in california and maintein this web site. Keiko is second daughter and Kimono designer. Mayumi is third daughter and nurse.

Special thanks to Mannatech's Optimal Health System. We thought we are eating very healthy from our own garden with our green tea. But we feel now much more healthier with Mannatech products.

Hadaseicha's tea is made the "Kabusecha" method. We have started selling teabags containing 100% spring tea leaves. The photo on the right shows tea brewed within two minutes in room temperature water. The photo on the left shows Aracha leaves. Aracha is not screened, so it has all leaves, stems and sprouts still intact. The flavor is richer and deeper.

We are shipping to whole seller for most of our products. The quality of tea is very different when we crop & produce. The tea season is about 2 weeks. Of cource early crop is higher grade. We take only resevation order. Then we can ship to you our best quality green tea with proud. So if you order from our web site, you'll recieve our best tea from the year!

Here's our customers' voice. Thank you very much. It is the most encouragement for our business as we are making product.

If you fill out PDF file and send FAX, I (Naoki) will sent to my parents in Japan with my translation.

My parents took long time to establish the tea factory and now really proud to people enjoy the green tea.

If you preserve in room temperature, tea leaves will be changed color after a few month. It is recommended to keep in freezer within zip lock pack and move small pack to refrigerator. Then you will able to enjoy the new tea flavor and taste long time. The reason to use small pack like zip lock is prevent to get moisture when you open the chilled pack.

It is good idea to put desiccant into pack where you keep tea leaves. But if the desiccant contains deodorant, it will absorb tea flavor also. So please check ingredient before you use.

Hadaseicha's green tea contains soft young leaves that will be burn with boiling water. It is recommented to use water around 60 degree Celsius like Gyokuro tea. And wait for about 3 minutes. Then all ingredient will be seeped.
