Known as “Goishicha” (Go Stone tea) for its resemblance to the black stones used in the board game of Go, this tea is one of the few microbial-fermented teas available in Japan.
Crafted using a secret technique handed down with dedication for over 400 years, this singular tea combines the cholesterol-lowering effects characteristic of fermented tea with the strong antioxidant activity usually found in unfermented teas like green tea. The sweet & sour brew is closer to fruit juice (tamarind & prunes) than to any Camelia leaves you’ve tried.
A healthy tea like no other!
