Harvesting Sencha Gokou

- At the end of May, d:matcha harvested its Gokou farms. They started by taking off the tea cover, and move it to the parking lot. After the field was cleaned from the cover, Daiki used a blower to remove the water on the tea leaves. There was a rain a few days prior to the harvesting day. So, it’s essential to reduce the amount of water collected with the tea.
Next, d:matcha team spread the tea bag on each tea rows, and Cutting only the buds of the trees to get the finest quality. It took them 4 hours with 5 people to finish the harvesting.
This Gokou field was shaded for about 15 days. After tasting all the teas, the tea from this farm is one of our favorites. As always, our teas are cultivated without pesticides, herbicides, and using only organic fertilizers.
In particular, the "Gokou" is perhaps the best we have ever produced. It boasts minimal off-flavors and a full-bodied umami. This year, the mild weather and abundant yield allowed us to prioritize harvesting at the optimal timing, resulting in an even better product than usual. Processing all the teas at our in-house factory (which visitors see during our tea farm tours and tea tastings) and carefully adjusting each step after harvesting has significantly contributed to the quality.
Now, the product is ready for purchase! Get it at dmatcha.com/co...
