Green Tea Pia
Japanese people enjoy drinking green tea.
Shizuoka Prefecture is known as the top production area of tea leaves, which are widely cultivated in Fukuroi City, as well.
Would you like to experience tea culture that Japan is proud of at “Kaori-no-Oka Chapia” run by the tea grower’ organization?
In spring, you can experience the plucking of tea leaf sprouts.
From mid-July until early February, you can experience the hand-plucking of sencha (a kind of green tea).
Hand-plucking is a traditional and old-style technique without depending on the machine.
At a tea room “Chayuan,” proper manners of Sado (tea ceremony), the Japanese traditional culture, can be learned casually using tea boasted by Shizuoka Prefecture.
