My favorite day of my week-long trip in Japan! Koichi was so kind and accommodating and he really made this day special for us. The location is stunning. We were in early April and the Cherry Blossoms were peak and the weather was perfect. He served us tea and a light meal and drove us around the community. It was just the experience that I was looking for to get a taste of rural life in Japan and see this remarkable region where green tea is grown. Thank you so much!!
