Ingredients: Green tea (Shizuoka Prefecture) Contents: 80g x 2 cansThe owl is popular as a lucky bird, deriving its popularity from auspicious words such as "fukuro" (meaning no hardship = "fukuro"), "fukuro" (meaning good fortune and owl), and "fukuro" (meaning good fortune and road). Its ability to turn its neck nearly 360° also makes it a symbol of business prosperity, representing the ability to "see ahead" and "easily grasp good fortune." Its endearing expression with large eyes makes it beloved by people all over the world.[Arataen's Deep-Steamed Tea] Deep-steaming method that utilizes high-quality tea leaves: Arataen's tea is "deep-steamed tea" made using the deep-steaming method, where tea leaves are steamed for three to four times longer than regular sencha.[Makinoara Plateau Tea] The Makinoara Plateau has long hours of sunlight, allowing for the cultivation of thick, nutrient-rich tea leaves. Steaming these leaves for a long time reduces the tannin (bitterness and astringency) content and increases the theanine (sweetness) amino acid, resulting in a mellow tea. Although the tea leaves become finer, they are characterized by a beautiful deep green color, mellow sweetness, and rich flavor.[Commitment to Soil] Arataen believes that "delicious tea can only be made from thick, dark green tea leaves picked from strong tea trees," and therefore, they are involved in tea cultivation from soil preparation.[Natural Recycling Agriculture: Rice Husk Compost] Every autumn, we make rice husk compost by fermenting rice husks, rice bran, rapeseed meal, etc., along with effective soil microorganisms. This natural recycling method involves spreading this rice husk compost, rich in umami components, evenly over vast fields to proliferate microorganisms in the soil, enrich the soil, and build soil fertility.[World Agricultural Heritage: Shizuoka's Tea Grassland Agriculture] Tea grasslands are semi-natural grasslands where grasses such as bamboo grass and susuki are cut and used as organic matter in tea fields. This is a common landscape in Shizuoka Prefecture. The practice of laying the cut grass from tea grasslands in tea fields produces higher quality tea. This activity, without disrupting the mechanisms of nature, allows for coexistence with living organisms. *Shizuoka's Tea Grassland Agriculture was certified as a World Agricultural Heritage by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) on May 30, 2013.*[Important] To customers shipping as a gift: If you are shipping to someone other than the purchaser, please select the gift option.
