About this craft
Arawata-en specializes in fukamushi (deep steaming), a Shizuoka technique that extends steam time 3–4x beyond standard green tea production. This rare method—common in Okuyama (deep mountain) tea regions—pulverizes leaves and concentrates umami, creating a distinctive earthy, nutrient-dense brew unique to high-altitude Japanese terroir.
