Yame is in a temperate rainy region, where temperature differences are extreme and the soil is fertile. As Yamecha is cultivated in this climate, its characteristics of strong sweetness and a rich flavor win the favor of tea lovers all over Japan.
The first step to making tea is to heat raw tealeaves with steam.

Tealeaves are dried to the appropriate state for preservation with a drying machine.
-Let us look at how to brew tasty tea. Here we will mainly introduce how to brew Sencha.
If you pour boiling water into a teapot directly, the temperature will be too high.Pour boiling water into another teacup once first.
Hold the teacup. When the heat reaches a tolerant level, it means the temperature is about 70°C.Now, pour that hot water to another teacup. The temperature will fall another 5~10 °C.In this way, astringency, which comes out easily with high temperature, can be controlled.
The key to brewing high-quality tea is to do it boldly with cooled down hot water. Bancha, good flavored Hojicha and Genmaicha should be brewed with boiling water.
The amount of tealeaves is about 2~3g per person. Learn to judge the best amount for your own taste preference with a spoon like a teaspoon .If the taste is too strong, try adding less tealeaves. Wait for one minute after pouring hot water.
The last drop, which is left in the teapot condenses sweetness.
So, pour tea completely
And, by pouring out the last drop, it can prevent tealeaves from getting soggy, so they can stay tasty for a second time and a third time.
Let us introduce how to brew tea in the proper order. Brew tea in the order of 1, 2, 3, and then in the order of 3, 2, 1. In this way, the amount and the strength of the tea will become uniform.
By adding a little hot water, sweetness is condensed and the taste becomes richer.
As for the best quantity by tea type, it is proper for a person to drink 25cc of Gyoroku, 40cc~70cc of Sencha, or 80cc of Hojicha or Genmaicha.
