Have you ever tried Japanese black tea?

The world's leading producers of black tea are India, Sri Lanka, and China. Black tea and green tea come from different types of tea trees, so Japanese black tea has a milder aroma compared to more glamorous black teas such as India's Darjeeling.


However, in recent years, the production of Japanese black tea has become popular, and it is receiving high praise both domestically and internationally. Tsushima Oishi tea farm is a wonderful tea farmer who received four stars in the Premium Tea Contest 2023 <Japanese Black Tea Category> held in Japan.


The moment you drink the hand-picked Tsushima black tea, you will be enveloped in a gorgeous aroma. A long-lasting, clear fragrance without any unpleasant tastes. Roasted black tea has a scent similar to roses and honey. Roasting adds richness and sweetness to black tea.


When I first drank Oishi tea farm's tea, I was surprised at how delicious it was. Oishi tea farm's tea is bright, warm, and energizing.

It's a gift that makes someone happy. The happiness of knowing Japanese black tea.

FAQ

Which type of of tea can I brew with the teapot?

It can be used for any type of tea. However, unglazed pottery is more likely to absorb the flavor of the tea leaves. By using different tea utensils for each type of tea, you can enjoy the flavor of the tea to the fullest.

For example, in the case of Japanese tea, sencha, fukamushicha, genmaicha, and gyokuro are all in the same family, but since hojicha has a strong roasted aroma, we recommend using a different tea utensil.

However, glazed pottery or porcelain tea utensils do not absorb the flavor of the tea leaves, so they are suitable for brewing various types of tea.

How do you wash a teapot?

Please wash the teapot with water, without using detergent. Ceramic teapots easily absorb detergent ingredients, which can affect the flavor of the tea.

Tea leaves remaining in the teapot are the main cause of tea stains. After brewing tea, we recommend removing the tea leaves once they have cooled and rinsing them with water.

Moisture remaining in the teapot can cause mold. Turning the teapot upside down will help it dry faster.

We do not recommend washing it in the dishwasher. Please wash by hand.

Can I remove tea stains from a teapot?

Here's how to remove tea stains.

1. In a bowl or pot, mix 24g of baking soda with 1 liter of water at 30-40°C.

*Do not use aluminum or Teflon-coated pots as they will react with baking soda.

2. Leave the teapot in the water mentioned in step 1 for 30-60 minutes.

3. Wipe off the tea stains with a soft sponge or cotton swab. Do not use hard sponges or brushes.

4. Rinse the teapot with water.

5. Thoroughly dry the teapot.

*Baking soda water may irritate your hands, so wear rubber gloves.
