This is the highest quality tea in the deep steamed Kakegawa tea series. Kabusecha (covered tea) is made by covering the tea garden with a blackout net for several days before picking the new buds in the spring to block out strong sunlight and grow the tea buds.
By shielding the tea garden from light, the amount of chlorophyll in the tea leaves increases, giving them a dark green color and an elegant aroma similar to gyokuro, which is unique to tea grown under cover.
Deep steamed tea is made by steaming it for two to three times longer than regular tea, which allows the tea ingredients to be extracted more easily, resulting in a richer, more flavorful green tea with less bitterness.
Kakegawa City is often featured on TV as a city of longevity. Most of the green tea that people in Kakegawa drink is deep steamed tea. The long steaming time allows the tea to contain nutritional components that would otherwise not be dissolved.
Kakegawa, which has rolling hills, grows tea with thick mesophyll, which is suitable for the deep steaming process, so it is widely known as a production area for delicious deep steamed tea.

The tea leaves, which have been carefully cultivated over a year, are transported to the tea factory for just two weeks, and various efforts are made to transform the freshly picked tea leaves into the tea we are familiar with. The tea manufacturing process includes steaming, drying, rolling, and rolling and drying, with steaming being the most important step. Since tea is a living thing, each day and each field has its own individuality. The tea master observes the condition of the tea leaves and changes the degree of steaming in order to bring out the best flavor. Depending on the color of the steamed leaves and the feel of your palm, you can determine the steaming method that best suits your tea that day.
