Very rich on the nose with fragrant mineral aromas, lightly roasted nuts and chestnuts, a bouillon-like umami aroma and young leaves in early summer. Round on the palate, with gentle astringency, umami, fullness and a slight sweetness. Refreshing and soft.

How best to enjoy it:
Comparatively dry and full-bodied, it goes well with lightly fatty meats and grilled fish. Drunk cold, it is recommended as an alternative to wine. It is also an excellent accompaniment to barbecues.

Miyazaki Sabo produces the highest quality organic tea in Japan using traditional production methods.

The Miyazaki Sabo tea garden is located in Gokase, in the centre of the Japanese southern island of Kyushu. The Miyazaki family started growing tea there about 90 years ago and pioneered the conversion to organic cultivation about 40 years ago. Their goal was to produce tea that does no harm to nature, both in cultivation and in consumption.


The current owner Akira Miyazaki received official organic certification from JAS (Japanese Agricultural Standard) for Miyazaki Sabo in 2001. He uses the knowledge he acquired at university to produce a rich, characteristic Kamairi tea of the highest quality from the combination of soil, climate and the use of various excellent Japanese tea varieties, which is characterised by refreshing taste and sweetness.


The success of his efforts is documented by many prestigious awards, such as the Japanese Emperor's Prize, the highest award for Japanese agricultural products, awarded by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, and the Great Taste Award Gold Award in England. Its teas were also served at dinner at the G20 Summit in Osaka in 2019. These recognitions show that Miyazaki Sabo is one of the country's leading tea producers.
