A Japanese tea shaped by mountain mist, carrying 700 years of heritage.

Grown in the mountainous region of Kasuga, Gifu, this rare tea is made from heirloom tea plants. Preserved through over 700 years of tea cultivation, these leaves express a natural character distinct from modern cultivars.

Surrounded by cool temperatures, dramatic day–night shifts, and morning mist,
the tea develops a soft yet deeply layered aroma.

Carefully grown without pesticides, each leaf reflects the touch of human hands.

Somehow nostalgic, yet entirely new. This is the taste of the past, still alive today.

Not something recreated, but 700 years of time, still continuing in this land.

 

Ancient Mist - Premium Hojicha

Made from carefully selected first flush leaves—rarely used for hojicha—and slowly roasted, this tea reveals a warm, naturally sweet aroma with a smooth, refined finish.

About the Vendor

Denroku Tea Garden is a small, family-run tea farm located in the mountainous region of Kasuga, at the foot of Mount Ibuki.

For generations, tea has been part of everyday life in this area, carefully maintained by local families. Today, the garden is run by family members who continue this tradition while focusing on growing tea and selling it directly.

Production remains small, and much of the tea is consumed locally.
