He began caring for the plants by clearing away the under brush and but allowing the plants to grow naturally as they had been.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeeking to return to the roots of tea making in the Kochi region, Kunitomo-san built a small processing factory that focuses on pan-firing tea leaves. Akika took over the project when her father passed away, expanding by using seeds from the original wild plants and creating a managed tea field while continuing to adhere to the philosophy of zero use of pesticides and fertilizer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRyu, The Mountain Dragon, is made from the original wild tea plants. Carefully handpicked by the Kunitomo family and their neighbors, and pan-fired by hand as well. Only about 10 kilograms can be harvested each year, making this an extremely limited reserve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\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: Yamacha (zairai, non-specific cultivar)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spring, harvested by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Handprocessed pan firing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.google.co.jp\/maps\/@33.6340777,133.3050399,3584m\/data=!3m1!1e3\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eIno Village, Kochi, Japan\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSteeping Recommendation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTea\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80C\/176F degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Amount\u003c\/strong\u003e: 200 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTime\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-4\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eminutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResteep\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e3-4 times (total 3-4 cups per 3 grams)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kunitomo Tea Garden","offers":[{"title":"10g \/ 0.35 oz","offer_id":40861989765,"sku":"kntm238-010","price":8.46,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"50g \/ 1.7 oz","offer_id":12453582143593,"sku":"kntm238-050","price":33.86,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"500g \/ 1.1 lbs","offer_id":40153568968809,"sku":"kntm238-500","price":282.21,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0926\/4578\/products\/kunitomo-riguricha-ryu-the-mountain-dragon-handpicked-wild-kamairicha-813475.jpg?v=1663993254","url":"https:\/\/yumenet.live\/en-fr\/products\/kunitomo-riguricha-ryu-the-mountain-dragon-handpicked-wild-kamairicha","provider":"yumenet.live","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
