The cultivar was first produced in 1994 with traits such as disease and cold resistance, good growth, and tea quality in mind, and indeed has shown very good resistance against frost so has been recommended to farmers cultivating at higher elevations. In general, the quality of tea made from the Kirari 31 is greater than that of Yabukita and compares with the umami level and color of Saemidori. Ready for harvest in general 3-4 days earlier than Yabukita, it has an excellent color (as you may be able to tell from the photo) with a mild flavor that is similar to Saemidori quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSteeping notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFrom Kuma Tea Garden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTea: 3-5g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTemperature: 57-80\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e℃ \/ 135-176˚F\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWater: 140-210ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTime: 30-60 sec \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOur recommendation:\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTea: 5 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTemperature: 70C \/ 158F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWater: 200 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTime: 60 sec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCan be re-steeped and enjoyed 3-5 times\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: Green tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kirari 31 cultivar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHarvest\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2024.4.27\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yame, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mountain-grown\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Farm\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJapanese tea instructor \u003cstrong\u003eKazumi Nakatani\u003c\/strong\u003e manages Kuma Tea Gardens as a brand representing her tea farmer uncles and cousins, and uses her expert palette to design exquisite sencha and gyokuro teas from the leaves farmed by her extended family.

It was derived from a cross of Sakimidori (the mother or pollen parent) and Saemidori (the father or pollen parent. Saemidori itself a cross between Yabukita and Asatsuyu cultivars). The cultivar was first produced in 1994 with traits such as disease and cold resistance, good growth, and tea quality in mind, and indeed has shown very good resistance against frost so has been recommended to farmers cultivating at higher elevations. In general, the quality of tea made from the Kirari 31 is greater than that of Yabukita and compares with the umami level and color of Saemidori. Ready for harvest in general 3-4 days earlier than Yabukita, it has an excellent color (as you may be able to tell from the photo) with a mild flavor that is similar to Saemidori quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: Green tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCultivar\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kirari 31\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest\u003c\/strong\u003e: May\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yabemura village, Yame, Fukuoka\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular steaming (40-50 seconds) used but leaves are young and delicate so the results is close to a deep steaming (fukamushi)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee our steeping guidelines here \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yumenet.live\/pages\/japanese-tea-steeping-techniques\"\u003eyumenet.live\/steep\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVendor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eName\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKurihara Seicha Ltd.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMembers\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kippei, Yuji, and Akio Kurihara (Father and sons)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/R6mFn\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e4236 Kita Yabe, Yabe-mura, Yame-shi, Fukuoka Prefecture 834-1401, JAPAN\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize of fields\u003c\/strong\u003e: About 3 hectares\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude of fields\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e300 - 700 meters\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"Kurihara Tea Farm","offers":[{"title":"[2026] 10g \/ 0.35 oz \/ May \/ Yunomi bag","offer_id":39711960432745,"sku":"kht-kirari-010-y26","price":780.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false},{"title":"[2026] 100g \/ 3.5 oz \/ May \/ Original bag","offer_id":41195954831465,"sku":"kht-kirari-100-y26","price":4000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"[2026] 1kg \/ 2.2 lbs \/ Bulk bag","offer_id":47808213549161,"sku":null,"price":35000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0926\/4578\/files\/0082.F2KuriharaTea.SingleCultivarYameSencha-Kirari31_31.jpg?v=1763015035"},{"product_id":"chiyonoen-tea-garden-26-hojicha-powder","title":"#0275.F2 Chiyonoen Tea Garden: Naturally Grown Hojicha Powder 粉末ほうじ茶","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis hojicha is light and woody with gentle toastiness.
