Description
Sencha Fukamushi is the signature expression of our tea making philosophy. Crafted for daily enjoyment, it reflects eight decades of hands-on practice and careful attention at every stage of production.
This sencha is steamed in the fukamushi, or deep-steamed, style common to Shizuoka, Japan, allowing the leaves to break down more fully and release a rich, vivid character in the cup. It is then finished at a higher drying temperature (火入れ・hi-ire), a defining approach of the Sugimoto family that brings depth, warmth, and consistency to the tea.
The result is a sencha with a full body, pronounced aroma, and a lingering umami finish that remains satisfying through multiple infusions. Balanced and dependable, it is a tea made not for a single moment, but for everyday brewing.

About the New Packaging
The central motif of our new packaging is the mizuhiki knot. Mizuhiki is a traditional Japanese decorative cord, used to mark moments of gratitude, respect, and connection. On our packaging, it serves as a quiet symbol of these values.
To us, the mizuhiki represents the relationships that shape our tea, from the growers who cultivate the leaves, to our own team who carefully finish and pack them, and ultimately to those who enjoy them. Each knot reflects intention and care, reinforcing the idea that tea is not simply a product, but a connection between people, place, and time.
