Teas grown without the use of pesticides by Hishiwa are excellent whether enjoyed straight or as milk tea.

This tea is cultivated on the mid-slope of Mount Kenya at an altitude of 5,199 meters, without the use of pesticides during the cultivation period.

It has a beautiful, deep orange color in the cup, with a fresh aroma and a rich flavor that is mellowed to reduce astringency.

It is great not only as a straight tea but also as a milk tea or iced tea.

Its mildness makes it so enjoyable that you will want to drink multiple cups throughout the day.

◆ The tea leaves are cultivated in Kenya, one of the world's leading tea-producing countries.

Kenya has a history of over a century in tea cultivation.

Its mild flavor is highly valued, and it is often blended into teas worldwide. It is now said to be the world's largest producer.

◆ Grown in optimal conditions without pesticides during the cultivation period and directly imported.

The foothills at an elevation of 1,100 to 1,900 meters have a daytime temperature of 16 to 19°C and experience significant temperature fluctuations between day and night, creating an ideal climate for delicious tea cultivation.

◆ The enchanting flavor and aroma from CTC processed tea leaves.

Unlike twisted leaves like Darjeeling, CTC processing produces small, round, ball-shaped leaves.

Hishiwa's pesticide-free Kenyan-grown tea leaves are processed using the CTC method, which extracts a particularly high-quality aroma and flavor, resulting in a richer taste.

◆ How to enjoy one cup of tea (for a teacup):

1. Pre-warm the teacup.

2. Place one tea bag into the cup and pour in freshly boiled hot water gently.

3. Cover and steep for about 1 minute and 30 seconds. Using a lid or saucer enhances the flavor.

4. Gently shake the tea bag and remove it.

*For iced tea, reduce the amount of hot water, brew a strong tea, and pour it over ice in a glass.*

Have you heard the word "organic"?

It refers to agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and processing methods that rely on natural blessings such as the sun, water, land, and living organisms, without depending on synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers.

Today in Japan, food safety issues are frequently revealed, and the way we think about food—something essential for human life—is being questioned.

Many consumers are now sensitive about the origin of their food and prefer products with the producer’s name or origin information.

Among these, organic products are gaining attention.

People are increasingly seeking foods that are not only delicious but also good for their health.

- We are Japan’s first certified organic manufacturer.

Twenty years ago, when we started considering organic cultivation, the term was still unfamiliar in the industry.

Despite this, we searched for farmers who could grow tea leaves without pesticides or chemical fertilizers during the cultivation period and directly partnered with truly organic farms separate from regular tea gardens.

We have carefully ensured transparency about when, where, who, and how the tea was produced, and have committed ourselves to meticulous manufacturing processes, sincerely dedicated to tea-making.

In 1996, the Japan Organic & Natural Foods Association (the predecessor of JAS) dispatched inspectors who certified that our tea from cultivation to packaging is genuinely organically grown, earning Japan’s first "Organic Certification."

This was a groundbreaking event at a time when many products claimed to be "organic" without proper certification, and it received significant media attention.

- Why our products remain affordable despite strict JAS standards.

Following green tea, in 1998, we obtained "Organic Certification" for black tea and barley tea.

We successfully passed the 2000 JAS revision law, which imposed even stricter standards inherited from JONA, and have continued to acquire organic JAS certification for over 40 products.

We want many people to know that delicious tea exists… Despite the JAS mark, we continually strive to keep prices accessible while providing safe, trustworthy tea.

We believe that spreading the goodness of organically cultivated tea is important, and we are confident that it will happen.
