静冈 美食之旅(1)

The tour was amazing and allowed us to discover enchanting places in the mountains around Shizuoka city and try various Japanese teas. Akito is a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable about tea and the region. I definitely recommend doing this tour!

Wonderful tour! We got to ask plenty of questions and gained a deeper appreciation for tea. Also, the host is very kind and amicable. He went above and beyond to craft a memorable experience for us. Well worth the time

Akito provided us with one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Japan! He is an incredibly knowledgeable guide to all things tea-related (he really can answer any and all of your questions) and also so friendly and accommodating. The experience of visiting this farm is unique, memorable, and fun. I highly recommend booking to everyone!!

I highly recommend to go on this tea tour. Akito is an amazing host. The tour is extremely interactive and informative. The tea tasting was excellent. It is worth every penny.

The experience was wonderful! There were two of us and the visit with Akito was very pleasant and informative. Akito is a kind and sociable person. He told us his story while traveling by car to the farm and, once we arrived, he explained to us how the cultivation and harvesting of tea leaves works. The view of the ordered rows along the mountain slope is amazing! From here you can also enjoy the view of Shizuoka. We had the tea tasting directly inside the plantation. It was very interesting to learn about new flavors and listen to Akito's explanations on how the taste of tea varies with different water temperatures. In the factory Akito replicated the drying process with a miniature machine and we had another tasting combined with mochi that enhanced the tea flavor. Then we visited the production area where he explained to us how the traditional hand process is replicated with machinery. Before saying goodbye we purchased some tea they produced. We recommend this experience to all people who want to discover the art and knowledge behind a cup of sencha.
