The saemidori cultivar was registered as a crossbreed in 1991 (Yabukita x Asatsuyu) and has since experienced substantial progress. This cultivar favors warm climates and is therefore mainly cultivated in the Kyushu area, as it is quite sensitive to cold making it unfavorable to grow in other areas. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Info\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: Saemidori\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest\u003c\/strong\u003e: April 6-9, 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yakushima, Kagoshima\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVendor Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eName\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yamane-en Tea Shop, a small tea shop in Tokyo operated by the Shiobara family.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/yV6f7\"\u003e3-34-1 Sugamo, Toshima-ku, Tokyo, JAPAN\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEstablished\u003c\/strong\u003e: About 60 years ago.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYamane-en is a family-operated tea shop based near Sugamo Station on the Yamanote Loop Line in Tokyo and run by tea master Michio Shiobara.
