Three flavor-packed favorites are back!
Your long-awaited favorites from Kagoshima are here, just in time for the holidays! Ooolong Osumi Ginger, Ooolong Osumi Yuzu, and Yuzu Sencha make a perfect gift for tea-loving friends and family. They are comprised of premium Japanese tea and 33% dried Osumi ginger or yuzu, with no artificial flavors or colors added.
The Family
ChaTo is run by a family whose love for tea has been passed down through the generations. Their passion stems from fond childhood memories of drinking sencha with their grandmother. Recognizing the void for a brick and mortar Japanese tea shop in Japantown, they set out to make authentic, good quality products accessible to the community. They enlisted the help of one of their mothers, a business owner with more than four decades of experience with Japanese pottery, including tea ware. Since 2016, ChaTo has been providing Japanese tea brewing essentials for beginners, experts and everyone in between.

This kyusu is over 45 years old. Sachiko's grandmother used to make tea with it, and it's still used at the shop today.
