What is Fukamushi?

Fukamushi (深蒸し) means “deep-steamed” in Japanese and refers to a special tea processing method where tea leaves are steamed for twice as long as regular sencha. This extended steaming results in smaller, finer tea particles, giving the brew a richer, fuller body with a deep green color and a naturally smooth, umami-rich taste. Fukamushi teas are known for their low bitterness and high antioxidant content, making them a favorite among Japanese tea enthusiasts.

Kakegawa: A City of Longevity and Tea Culture

Kakegawa, a historic city in Shizuoka Prefecture, is famous for producing some of Japan’s finest green teas, including Fukamushi Sencha. Interestingly, Kakegawa’s residents are known for their long and healthy lives, which many attribute to their daily consumption of local green tea. Studies suggest that the high levels of catechins and antioxidants in Fukamushi tea may support heart health, boost metabolism, and enhance overall well-being.

Drinking Fukamushi Kakegawa Sencha is not just about enjoying premium Japanese tea—it’s about embracing a centuries-old tradition of health and longevity straight from the heart of Japan’s tea culture.
