Temomi means hand rolling and the whole process is done by the hands of temomi artisans of Sayama green tea. Centuries ago, all of green tea was made by hand rolling in Japan, but it has been replaced into machines nowadays. As it takes 6 hours to complete the whole process, the temomi cha is really rare to see. In Sayama, Temomi Cha is produced in April, celebrating the harvest of their green tea. Also, it is a starting point for Sayama tea producers to check the quality of the harvest of the year. ◆Health benefits and various recipes of green tea http://cupidojapan.com/?s=green+tea ------------------------------------------------------------- ◆SOCIAL MEDIA: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cupidojapan/ Pinterest: https://jp.pinterest.com/Cupido_Japan/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cupido_japan/ ------------------------------------------------------------- ◆What is this channel about? “Washoku” (Japanese cuisine) has been recently recorded on the list of the World's Intangible Cultural Heritage, and there are many tasty washoku cuisine in Japan.
