Yamecha Wholesaler Shigematsu Kakujuen

This wholesaler of locally produced Yamecha tea is located right next to the Yoshitsune intersection in Hirokawa-machi.
Yamecha tea is a specialty of Fukuoka prefecture. Here, their focus is on uncompromising procurement of Aracha (a raw product used in tea making produced by rubbing the freshly picked tea leaves) in order to provide delicious Yamecha for a lower price, the sale of 100% unmixed Yamecha, and providing unique, high quality teas that will give joy to the consumer that can’t be found elsewhere, rather than selling the same tea in large volume. They only procure the teas deemed as being of the highest quality by professionals, and process them to bring out their unique qualities. As a local wholesaler, they feel that their mission is to provide Yamecha tea that overjoy the drinker with delicious taste, and never disappoint those who like Yamecha tea and want to drink it again.
They carry numerous varieties of teas, such as Sencha, Gyokuro, Shiraore, Konacha, Genmaicha, and Hojicha, at the appealingly low prices only possible at a wholesaler. In addition to in-store purchases, they also sell online via their website. So go ahead and try some of the owner’s uncompromising, unmixed, pure Yamecha.
