Ancient Mist - Strawberry Wakocha Tea bags

A comforting Japanese black tea from the misty mountains of Kasuga, Gifu.

Blended with freeze-dried ripe strawberries, this tea combines the soft roasted character of Japanese wakocha with a gentle, nostalgic sweetness.

Warm, mellow, and quietly familiar.

This comforting wakocha is blended with freeze-dried strawberries made from fully ripened fruit harvested at peak sweetness.

The strawberries are sourced from nearby farms in the Kasuga area, then carefully frozen and freeze-dried to preserve their rich aroma and gentle sweetness.

An unusually generous amount of strawberry is used in the blend — nearly as much strawberry as tea leaves — creating a soft fruit character that naturally complements the mellow roasted notes of Japanese wakocha.

The result is smooth and comforting, with warm strawberry notes layered over a gentle black tea base.

Tea leaves are selected from small tea fields in Kasuga, reflecting the seasonal character of each harvest.

Crafted in small batches by Denroku Tea Garden, this tea offers a nostalgic flavor profile that feels both comforting and distinctly Japanese.

For generations, tea has been part of everyday life in this area, carefully maintained by local families. Today, the garden is run by family members who continue this tradition while focusing on growing tea and selling it directly.

Production remains small, and much of the tea is consumed locally.
