A misty tea producing region 
where the morning calm and 
evening calm descend
- Kaita in Mimasaka.

Mimasaka City in Okayama Prefecture is a place

Cha-Shimoyama started tea cultivation 
in and is now celebrating its th year.
In , our tea was served as a

About

We primarily cultivate 
four varieties of 
tea suitable for 
mountainous regions,
and are pesticide-free.

We cherish the tea-making process passed down through generations,
managing and processing tea leaves for each field.

Hiraban-cha, produced by Cha-Shimoyama, 
involves processing tea leaves 
without tightly rolling them, 
which is a method embraced 
mainly 
in western Japan and beloved for centuries.

Using only leaves harvested in early autumn
when the temperature difference begins to emerge,
we carefully roast them, 
regulating the temperature and duration of firing.
Its pleasant aroma, smooth and refreshing taste,
and invigorating mouthfeel create its original characteristics.
Also it has a gentle effect on the body due to 
reduced caffeine making it 
distinctive.
