Jiro's attitude toward tea is full of love for tea, "It is not made with human ego, but tea and people are equal to the last. I have carried out the philosophy.
"As a person who is at the forefront of the history of Shizuoka tea, I want to bring this environment to the next generation. From the thought,
I give a lot of fertilizer and don't make tea like foie gras.
They don't even make organic tea for insects and diseases.
On top of that, they always aim for levels where pesticide residues are not detected, and they look at the state of the tea tree so that tea can make a lot of umami by itself.
