Fascinating! I love the varieties of Japanese tea including sencha, houjicha and genmae cha but this is the first I've heard of kancha, so must try it next time I'm in Tokushima visiting my wife's family.

Oh please do! I’m happy to give you some to try and take home if you’re in Tokushima!

Thank you for this truly wonderful post! After bringing him tea as omiyage from Japan, my (Swiss) dad became a serious lover of Japanese green tea. He was intrigued, when he heard about Kancha and was wondering if Ishimoto-san is selling her tea to individuals too? (Shippment to a Japanese address ok)
