Widely recognized as the green tea capital of Japan, Shizuoka prefecture has been renowned for the cultivation of green tea for over seven centuries. Shizuoka’s moderate climate, high-quality water and its hilly terrain around Mount Fuji make a perfect environment for growing tea.

Several major seaports in the prefecture provided access to markets across the country, and Shizuoka’s fame as a producer of the finest green teas has continued to grow ever since.

Nasuno Teahouse is proud to continue this tradition.
