There is many tea plantations in Hamamatsu-city.
Any Japanese people love drinking green tea but how many people know that how it is produced?? I guess, it is few...
I was interested in the leaves of green tea after moved here from Hiroshima. There was no tea plantation in Hiroshima City.
My neighbors told me the organic tea plantation grows is in the vicinity of our city.
It suddenly occurred to me that the drinking tea is the taste and the state of the leaf are deeply related,that mean we drink the dissolved the element of the leaf directly.There is a leaf that hangs agricultural chemicals though it is harmless, too.
It is drinking everyday, I think that organic tea is better.
Then, I visited the tea plantation.
In a small factory next to the tea plantation, the leaf of just picking is steamed, and rubbed.
Most processes have been mechanized.
There was a good smell of steamed tea in the factory.
Other visitor asked him ''Could you spare me some unroasted tea leaves?''
He said and showed her ''It is necessary to drink in a few days because it is not possible to preserve'' and he told us ''it is able to eat the tea leaf before roast because its soft''.also we can take in all nourishment of catechin.
The primary schoolchild can make to do the tea picking experience in this tea plantation.
The children comes from the school as part of the class.
Shizuoka prefecture, there are a lot of tea plantations where such an activity is done.
I bought two type of tea.
The package of pink is the first tea picked in this year. 
It is very delicious though the price is also high because the produced amounts are small.
it is 1500 yen / 100g .
the package of green is for usual drinking tea.
This is fresh and delicious too. this one is 1900 yen / 300g. its not expensive.
Even if it is not a big-name brands one, we can find very delicious one.
However, sometime it is difficult to find it because be known by only local people.
I had a cup of tea which was cheaper one.
This is a point to extracting it at the low temperature.
mmmm, so delicious!!! nice smell and natural flavor and taste was smooth.
The cold of winter that tea bushes were endured, cheers for blessing of the earth
Cool! I've always been fascinate by Japanese green tea, it's pretty rare to find it here, I tasted a cup once and it was fantastic!
My country is one of the world leading tea producers, sadly not many people here drink black tea, therefore they end up losing the ability to truly feel its unique taste.
