Yame Otomobe

by Nakashima Seicha Honpo株式会社 中島製茶本舗

八女抹茶 大伴部

八女抹茶 大伴部 (Otomobe) is Nakashima Seicha Honpo's mid-grade ceremonial matcha, crafted from carefully selected first-flush tencha grown in the Oku-Yame highlands. Stone-mill ground to preserve the natural sweetness, elegant foam, and vibrant green color that define Yame matcha. A reliable everyday ceremonial choice from one of Yame's oldest tea houses.

Editorial verdict

A solid mid-grade Yame matcha for daily practice — balanced, affordable, and true to the regional character.

About the brand

Nakashima Seicha Honpo

株式会社 中島製茶本舗

Nakashima Seicha Honpo (株式会社 中島製茶本舗) is a historic Yame tea producer and merchant founded in 1886 (Meiji Year 19) in the Oku-Yame area of Joyo-machi, Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture — a region considered the spiritual home of Japanese tea ceremony cultivation. With over 130 years of unbroken operation, the company has upheld the tagline 'The traditional craft of 120 years of founding is here' (創業百二十年の伝統の技ここにあり). They source exclusively first-flush (一番茶) tencha grown in the Oku-Yame highlands, shaded using traditional yoshizu bamboo screens and straw to block sunlight, then stone-mill ground to produce matcha with vivid green color, good foam, and a naturally sweet, mellow flavor. Their matcha range spans from the premium Okumidori single-cultivar 煌寿 (Kouju) to accessible everyday and culinary grades, all in elegant tin cans.
