June 6th marks "Boshu," or "Grain in Ear."

This period signifies the time when grains like rice are sown, and rice planting begins. It's a season when nature's life flourishes, nourished by the blessings of rain.

Coinciding with the start of the rainy season, it's also a time when changes in atmospheric pressure and humidity can easily disrupt the balance of mind and body. Many people may experience a feeling of heaviness or difficulty lifting their spirits.

During such seasons, our ancestors incorporated dokudami (chameleon plant), believed to regulate excess water in the body, and tachibana (mandarin orange) leaves, characterized by their refreshing citrus aroma, as wisdom for health maintenance.

This product is based on a rare, milky, and soft-toned black tea native variety, blended with dokudami, which has long been used for health, and accented with the gentle aroma of tachibana leaves.
Within its mellow taste, a hint of wildness and a low, soft sweetness intertwine, creating a deeply flavorful experience.

Please relax and enjoy a cup to help you get through the rainy season.
