Matsue City in Shimane Prefecture is known to have a refined green tea culture due to the history attached to the place. Established in the heart of the city decades ago, Sanko-en specializes in producing and selling superior tea items, such as gyokuro (high-quality green tea grown in the shade), matcha, sencha, herb teas, and sweets made with green tea. Their master tea blender carefully chooses raw materials and supervises the processing steps to control the flavor and quality completely. Their premier green tea products are appreciated even by the locals who have sophisticated taste buds for green tea. Also, their original “Wa no Herb Tea” (Japanese herbal tea) series, which now has 10 varieties, is unique in the way in which it’s made mainly with local ingredients and how it maximizes the goodness of Japanese herbs.
