More about cultivation

Okumidori is a Japanese monovariety of tea that has gained popularity due to its unique properties and exceptional quality. The variety was created in 1974 in Kagoshima Prefecture, by breeding and crossing Yabukit with other types of tea. The name "Okumidori" translates as "deep green", which emphasizes the rich color of the leaves and infusion.


Okumidori has a richer, sweeter taste with soft tannins that create a balanced and refined profile. The leaves of this variety are bright green, dense and shiny, which indicates a high content of chlorophyll. Due to this, the variety is ideal for making premium matcha and sencha. Okumidori infusion has a bright emerald color and a delicate, fresh aroma with notes of flowers and herbs.


This variety is often grown in shade to enhance umami and provide a richer flavor. Okumidori is known for its resistance to disease and pests, making it ideal for growing in various regions of Japan, including Kagoshima, Uji and Mie. However, it requires careful care, as it is sensitive to frost.

Okumidori is usually harvested by hand, especially when it comes to producing high-quality matcha. This approach allows you to preserve the integrity of the leaves and ensure maximum quality.

Japan, Koka-shi

A match with over 100 years of history

Maruyasu Tea Farm is located in Koka City, Tsuchiyama district, Shiga Prefecture. Currently, it is the largest Matcher.store farm, as it includes the area of three whole villages.

This area is one of the oldest in Japan where high-quality tea has been grown since the Nara period (8th century). The farm was founded over 130 years ago and has been passing down the secrets of tea cultivation from generation to generation.

Today, the farm is managed by Yasuharu Maeno, a fourth-generation farmer of the Maeno family. His mission is to preserve traditional Japanese tea production and improve cultivation methods that combine environmental sustainability and high quality.

The tea grown in Tsuchiyama is known as Tochiyamacha and is part of Ōmi-cha – tea produced in Shiga Prefecture. The region is located in a mountainous area at an altitude of 300-400 m above sea level, which creates ideal conditions for growing tea. It is warm during the day and cool at night, which contributes to the development of a complex flavor profile in the tea.
